This is a collection of original essays by well-known Atwood
scholars offering contemporary critical readings and assessments of
three well known Atwood texts. In this critical collection,
well-known Atwood scholars offer original readings and critical
re-evaluations of three Atwood masterpieces - "The Robber Bride",
"The Blind Assassin", and "Oryx and Crake". Providing new critical
assessments of Atwood's novels in language that is both lively and
accessible, Margaret Atwood reveals not only Atwood's ongoing and
evolving engagement with the issues that have long preoccupied her
- ranging from the power politics of human relationships to a
concern with human rights and the global environment - but also her
increasing formal complexity as a novelist. If Atwood is a novelist
who is part trickster, illusionist and con-artist, as she has often
described herself, she is also, as the essays in this critical
collection show, an author-ethicist with a finely honed sense of
moral responsibility. This series offers up-to-date guides to the
recent work of major contemporary North American authors. Written
by leading scholars in the field, each book presents a range of
original interpretations of three key texts published since 1990,
showing how the same novel may be interpreted in a number of
different ways. These informative, accessible volumes will appeal
to advance undergraduate and postgraduate students, facilitating
discussion and supporting close analysis of the most important
contemporary American and Canadian fiction.
