Cat's Eye
Book Playlist

Cat's Eye

by Margaret Atwood

“Cat’s Eye” moves like a painted memory—Toronto streets pulling Elaine back into childhood triangles of loyalty, longing, and betrayal, then into the harder politics of being seen as an artist and a woman. This playlist balances intimate, reflective instrumentals with lyric-driven songs that echo return, recollection, erotic tension, and the ache of unresolved pasts.
