Murder in the Dark
This novel didn’t really have a story line so it is hard to summarize, it is a very confusing, and jumpy book. It is definitely not a typical Margaret Atwood book. The Novel begins with two page chapters with different topics and completely different story lines. The books begins chapter one with “Making Poison,” this tells us about when her and her brother made their own “poison” when they were very young, and that she doesn’t remember what they did with it. Then it skips through to many different topics with a two page description. The entire book follows this pattern. It is very confusing and has very little story line at all.
Hurricane Alicia
A main event taking place in 1983 is Hurricane
