Abstract

Margaret Atwood's tenth novelThe Blind Assassin(2000) juxtaposes Depression-era politics against those at the end of the twentieth century.

At stake inThe Blind Assassinis an acknowledgment that market liberalism, a theory of political economy, is a theory also of human subjectivity. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
