Destek

A timely, accessible introduction to Margaret Atwood’s most recent novels and enduring themes

In 2017, the Hulu adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale introduced the acclaimed and bestselling Canadian author to a new generation and reminded Atwood’s long-established readers of her uncanny prescience.

Understanding Margaret Atwood provides an overview of the author’s life, descriptions and analyses of the key themes present in her most recent novels, signposts to the connections and intertextual references between them, and attention to their critical reception. Following a biographical overview, author Donna M. Bickford studies The Handmaid’s Tale (1985) and its sequel The Testaments (2019), retellings of The Odyssey in The Penelopiad (2005) and The Tempest in Hag Seed (2016), the Madd Addam trilogy (2003, 2009, 2013), and The Heart Goes Last (2015). Written in clear language and a style appropriate both for scholars and for new students of Atwood, Bickford locates Atwood’s recent works in the literary, political, and social context.

Atwood is the author of more than fifty books of fiction, essays, and poetry, which have collectively sold more than eight million copies worldwide; has received numerous awards and accolades, including multiple Booker Prizes and a PEN Center USA Lifetime Achievement Award; and is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada.
