Although set in the mid 1960’s this is still a relevant book about marriage and relationships and explores the characters in a depth.
July 2010 Guest Editor Louise Candlish on Margaret Atwood...
I read Atwood’s first novel some time after the later biggies like Alias Grace and was not surprised to find she was masterly right out of the blocks. Though the heroine Marian’s journey is an anguished one, there are also flashes of wonderful absurdist humour. If this were published today it would probably be called ‘chick noir’.
