For readers of <em>Oryx and Crake</em>, nothing will ever look the same again.</p> <p>The narrator of Atwood''s riveting novel calls himself Snowman. When the story opens, he is sleeping in a tree, wearing an old bedsheet, mourning the loss of his beloved Oryx and his best friend Crake, and slowly starving to death. He searches for supplies in a wasteland where insects proliferate and pigoons and wolvogs ravage the pleeblands, where ordinary people once lived, and the Compounds that sheltered the extraordinary. As he tries to piece together what has taken place, the narrative shifts to decades earlier. How did everything fall apart so quickly? Why is he left with nothing but his haunting memories? Alone except for the green-eyed Children of Crake, who think of him as a kind of monster, he explores the answers to these questions in the double journey he takes - into his own past, and back to Crake''s high-tech bubble-dome, where the Paradice Project unfolded and the world came to grief. <br /> <br /> With breathtaking command of her shocking material, and with her customary sharp wit and dark humour, Atwood projects us into an outlandish yet wholly believable realm populated by characters who will continue to inhabit our dreams long after the last chapter. This is Margaret Atwood at the absolute peak of her powers.</p> <br /> <br /> <p>&quot;Ingenious and disturbing..

">It's difficult to imagine a harder first act to follow than&nbsp;<i>The Kite Runner</i>: a debut novel by an unknown writer about a country many readers knew little about that has gone on to have over four million copies in print worldwide.

As special as&nbsp;<i>The Kite Runner</i>&nbsp;was, those readers said,&nbsp;<i>A Thousand Splendid Suns</i>&nbsp;is more so, bringing Hosseini's compassionate storytelling and his sense of personal and national tragedy to a tale of two women that is weighted equally with despair and grave hope.</span></p><div style="clear: both;">&nbsp;</div> Sun, 05 Dec 2010 11:42:09 -0500 http://www.productwiki.com/a-thousand-splendid-suns/
