The Three Biggest Mistakes Made By Fiction Writers
Even highly celebrated authors do it.

Mise-en-abyme: Margaret Atwood’s The Blind Assassin
“Two and two doesn’t necessarily get you the truth. Two and two equals a voice outside the window. Two and two equals the wind. The living bird is not its labelled bones.” (484) Mathematical reality is not the only challenge Atwood’s The Blind Assassin makes to the reader’s assumptions. The Blind Assassin takes the reader on a deep character study which turns characterisation on its head. It takes the reader on a dramatic plot ride which ends up destroying the notion of plot, and presents an exquisitely crafted and believable narrator which questions the whole idea of a narrative voice. Atwood’s control of her narrative voice is superb, as she layers the stories and voices together adeptly, leading us back always to ourselves, the ultimate character.
