Zusammenfassung

This collection of essays on Atwood's oeuvre – supplied by contributors from Canada, the US, Germany, Great Britain, and France – aims at taking full stock of the range of Atwood's accomplishments and her international impact at the height of her creative powers. Serving also as an introduction to Atwood, this volume treats Atwood's life and status as a canonical writer, her multifaceted work, and important theoretical approaches to her oeuvre. The book innovatively also includes statements on Atwood from her publishers, agents, translators, and some of her fellow writers. A selection of photographs of Atwood, several cartoons drawn by and about her, and a bibliography of books by and about Atwood round off the volume.

The unique structure of the volume and its high scholarly standards along with the simultaneous inclusion of very personal glimpses at the life and work of the author make [it] a book with enough breadth and depth to stand out among the countless books on Atwood." – Maria Löschnigg, Germanisch-Romanische Monatsschrift}
