_Alias Grace_ by Margaret Atwood is a fictional account of a real-life murderess in Canada. Most of the book is told from her perspective, and leaves one wondering if she was a willing murderess or an unwilling accomplice. During her incarceration, a psychiatrist attempts to study her in hopes of understanding her. However, as her story unfolds, she seems to gain in strength as the psychiatrist's life takes a downward spiral. Highly recommended.
