One of the most interesting elements throughout is the prevalence of haunting and the major paradox created by the idea of Grace becoming possessed by Mary’s spirit. Grace suffers from being wrapped in two personalities. She is both Grace and Mary. Another interesting aspect is point of view. Grace is the first person narrator of the book, but Atwood also interjects vital information to Grace’s story that show evidence of multiple narrators. This further blurs the line between the real and the fictional. Multiple narrators as well as multiple personalities creates a confusing scenerio. Atwood uses this theme to keep readers perplexed about who has committed the crimes.
