The Blind Assassin is March Book Talk Selection

February 11, 2011

"Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge."

If that opening line doesn't get you, then keep reading as The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood has much more in store. This novel-within-a-novel is the March Book Talk selection at the Mid-Continent Public Library Kearney Branch. Told in a style that captures the speech and atmosphere of the 1930s and 1940s, The Blind Assassin weaves together a story that is at once period mystery and science fiction at a breathtaking pace.

Our March Book Talk will be Friday, March 4 at 10 a.m. Pick up a copy of this month's selection at the front desk anytime this month, and come join the discussion.
