Bluebeard's Egg

Praise

“A book to be read and re-read, to be talked about and savored. . . . Atwood [is] writing at top form, writing with total control of her material, with sureness, with touches of brilliance.” —The London Free Press

“This collection . . .  attests, again, to Ms. Atwood’s range as a writer, her ability to set forth her view of the world . . . in both lyrical, meditative tales and wry, crackly satires. . . . These stories are strewn, like a starry sky, with shimmering images and bright metaphors.” —The New York Times

“A startlingly original voice.” —Washington Post Book World

“Atwood’s prose in Bluebeard’s Egg is powerful, elegant and mellifluous to an extraordinary degree.” —Quill and Quire
