Iris Chase Griffen In The Blind Assassin By Margaret Atwood

Through this hardship, Saranell views the relationship of a family very negatively. With her mom repeatedly neglecting her, Saranell feels as if it'd be better for her mother to go away completely through death than let her down one more

Rachel DeWoskin’s novel“Blind” totally has what it takes for a book to be considered a “classic.” It’s because the book expresses an artistic an expression of life. This book was only published recently in 2014, and new books aren’t usually considered classics. This is now, but this book can and will be popular years later. This book has a universal appeal which means that it attracts all different readers. And finally, this book is similar to other “classic books.”

Setting the tone of the novel, the story begins with Iris remembering of the day she discovered her sister Laura Chase, allegedly killed herself in a motor vehicle accident in order to create a blunt mystery later to be explained throughout the novel. Iris then moves on to describe the origins of her family wealth and the stories of her early childhood. Iris and Laura’s mother died when they were quite young so their caregiver, Reenie, basically raised them while their drunken father ran the family company. Throughout their childhood, Iris was always told to look out for Laura as she was always described as ‘odd’ through her entire life. This oddity would start one of the major conflicts of the novel as Laura and Iris met a man named Alexander Thomas in which they

The exert “stick to animals Joanna” infers that Iris wished to protect Joanna from Marcy and stop her from snooping about the Sanchez’s death. In addition, the quote “I’m Anna, Anna” hints at Anna’s wariness of Iris due to her declining sanity. This is further exacerbated by Iris’ keeping the secrets of her murderous daughter, Marcy, for

It is naive for Iris to think that, because she had a child, her life was no longer her own. Woodson makes it clear that Iris has still not quite come to terms with having a child when Iris thinks “how the hell did you get here”. This language further expresses Iris’ naivete by revealing that she had not thought much about motherhood while she was pregnant. Iris kept Melody from defying her parents but failed to understand what having a baby would mean for her life. Aubrey is described as both a loving and an insecure character in this passage.

The second event which shaped her development is she and her brother were assaulted by Bob Ewell, as a retribution for being humiliated by their father during the trial. Her foundation is once again challenged by an immoral person. All of these events combined with society and the people around her contributed to her development in the book. Her moral beliefs and conscience were challenged several times but her stable foundation allowed her to go through these events and see the true nature of human beings. Because of her strong support system, although she lost her innocence, she didn’t lose her

Instead of relying on another power that is above her, she takes her fate into her own hands and tries to save her own home. This self reliance develops early, and can also be seen much later in her life. When she is twenty-seven, Lily learns that her husband has a secret second family. She leaves him immediately and manages to annul the marriage. Although he had taken all of her money from their joint bank account, she does not go back to her parents in Arizona or try to find another husband to take care of her. Instead, she begins preparing for her future alone. “Since I obviously couldn't count on a man to take care of me, what I needed more than ever was a profession. I needed to get my college education and become a teacher . . . the time flew by, and when both the dispensation and the acceptance letter arrived, I had enough money for a year of college” (p. 90). Instead of wondering what to do and moping about her ex-husband, Lily is practical and knows what she wants to do next. She also mentions that she cannot depend on a husband to take care of her.
