Industry reviews
"CAT'S EYE is not only about memory, nor is it the chronicle of a particular life. It is a novel of images, nightmarish, evocative, heartbreaking and mundane, that taken together offer us not a retrospective but an addition: a new work entirely and Margaret Atwood's most emotionally engaging fiction thus far."
McDermott 

"A brilliant, three-dimensional mosaic... The story of Elaine's childhood is so real and heartbreaking you want to stand up in your seat and cheer."
McDermott 

"Atwood presents the apprehensions of a ten-year-old so intensely that they almost seem to be the reader's own memories."
Wilson
