Dancing Girls and Other Stories Zusammenfassung

Dancing Girls and Other Stories Margaret Atwood

From the international bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale, Dancing Girls and Other Stories showcases Margaret Atwood's masterly skill for storytelling.

Students, journalists, farmers, birdwatchers, ex-wives, adolescent lovers - and dancing girls. All ordinary people.

Or are they?

In brilliant flashes of fantasy, humour and unexpected violence, Margaret Atwood reveals the complexities of human relationships and maps the motivations we scarcely know we have within us. Populated with characters who evoke laughter, compassion, terror and recognition, Atwood's stories show why she remains one of our greatest, most original storytellers.

'A remarkable collection' Sunday Times

Dancing Girls and Other Stories Bewertungen

An acute and poetic observer of the eternal, universal, rum relationships between men and women * The Times *
The mind revealed in this collection of short stories is acutely perceptive, in love with language and capable of seeing significant connections between apparently disparate circumstances * Evening Standard *
If anyone has better insight into women and their central problem - men - than Margaret Atwood, and can voice them with as much wit, impact and grace, then they haven't started writing yet * Daily Mail *
Margaret Atwood's stories are fierce parables about the horror of city life and the power politics of relationships. The fierceness filters insidiously through the leisurely realism of her domestic interiors, clothes, meals, weather... A remarkable collection * Sunday Times *
