The antagonist in "Alias Grace" is primarily the patriarchal society in which the main character, Grace Marks, must navigate in the 19th century. Other characters, such as Dr. Simon Jordan and Jeremiah the peddler, also play antagonistic roles in Grace's story.
The title Alias Grace may regard the hypnotism session near the end of the novel with Jeremiah. Her actions may have been that of her friend Mary under the physical guise of Grace.
