Adding to my Atwood TBR shelf :o)

From the back cover;
| ’I feel it will be different if I look myself. Probably when we get there my father will have returned from wherever he has been, he will be sitting in the cabin waiting for us.’ A young woman returns to northern Quebec to the remote island of her childhood, with her lover and her two friends, to investigate the mysterious disappearance of her father. Flooded with memories, she begins to realise that going home means entering not only another place but another time. As the wild island exerts its elemental hold and she is submerged in the language of the wilderness, she sees that what she is really looking for is her own past. |

Rambling - therefore difficult to speed-read, which is what I'm into at the mo. And author loses the plot in the last quarter. The least readable Atwood for me so far, certainly not a patch on The Handmaid's Tale.
But that's just my opinion! If you've found this book please tell me if you agree or not :o)

Taking to the Chelmsford meet to see if there's any interest. At the new venue; the Orange Tree in Lower Anchor Street, Moulsham.
