Margaret Atwood has millions of fans the world over. But it's true that she is a writer of a certain type. She is one of the most intelligent and talented writers of the twentieth century. Her books require thought, they cannot simply be forced upon a person. At the same time I have to say that this is a compelling tale that you will not be able to set aside, even for a good night's sleep.
I was made to read this book for a Can Lit class in 1981. I still haven't forgiven the teacher. This book is not for everyone, neither is Margaret Atwood. I can't stand any of her other stuff, either.
