T H E S A L O N I N T E R V I E W M A R G A R E T A T W O O D Margaret Atwood on famous Victorian murderesses, her claim to Connecticut, and the deep satisfaction of a clean, folded towel BY LAURA MILLER an Salon met up with Atwood during her recent visit to San Francisco, where she professed to be able to guess how many servants it took to maintain the city's various Victorian mansions, just by looking. You've written about Grace Marks before. Yes, a TV scenario, produced in 1974 by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, but it used only one version of the story, which was the only version that I knew at that time. That was [journalist] Susanna Moodie's rather theatrical and Dickensian write-up of the case. I was young and I thought non-fiction meant "true," and I believed her mostly. I didn't believe the part where she had Nancy being cut up into four pieces before being placed underneath the wash-tub, because I thought, "Why would they do that? Wouldn't it take a lot of time? And which four pieces? Why four and why do it at all?" So, that gave you a germ of suspicion.

Information After learning that her widowed father has mysteriously disappeared, a young artist returns to the rural cabin in which she was raised. She is joined by her friends, a young married couple, and her estranged lover, all of whom who hope to make a holiday of this macabre event. As the week unfolds, she combs the lake, woods, and cabin for traces of her father. Her search yields not only the answer to that mystery, but access to her long-dormant emotions, repressed memories, and her will to continue living not as a victim of the world but as a full and accountable participant. Her transformative week of hunting and gathering of clues to her identity yields a complex feast of danger, violence, infidelity, shattered allegiances, and secrets laid bare. Questions for Contemplation or Book Group Discussion 1. Throughout the novel, we never learn the name of our narrator. Why might Atwood choose anonymity for her heroine?

48. Ambiguities Of Counter Hegemonic Monologism In Margaret AtwoodÂ’s Surfacing Essay from the Queen s University of Belfast. http://www.qub.ac.uk/english/imperial/canada/atwood.htm

Surfacing This page last revised 12 May 1998 In his book Ideologies of Epic In a post-colonial context and in the geographical context of Canada one can see in Surfacing how Atwood asserts a feminist counter hegemonic discourse with and within a discursive framing of Canadian national identity. In Surfacing the subaltern role could be filled by both male and female. The narrating I holds the discourse firmly. She alone has her inner consciousness exposed and denies others their consciousness. Unlike, say, Toni Morrison in Jazz , where questions of gender and race are dealt with through a narrative consciousness that moves fluidly from one voice to another. Anna walks out of the bedroom, dressed in jeans and shirt again. She combs her hair in front of the mirror, light ends, dark roots, humming to herself. You are my sunshine; smoke twines up from her cigarette. Help, I think at her silently, talk. And she does. Wide Sargasso Sea it is open-ended. As Bakhtin identifies, purity in monologic discourse is a theoretical ideal. She has to engage, in some way, with the other. The search for her father, be it actual or maetaphorical, is an engagement.

Information Considered to be her most autobiographical work, Cat's Eye, Margaret Atwood's critically acclaimed seventh novel, is the story of Elaine Risley, the daughter of a forest entomologist and controversial artist in her fifties who returns to Toronto for a retrospective of her work. In her moment of professional glory, she becomes consumed by vivid images of her past, especially those of Cordelia, her best friend and emotional counterpart who waged lavish cruelties on her as a girl. Atwood employs her wry humor, rich irony, and keen eye for detail in a brilliant exploration of the treacherous terrain of girlhood and the historical geography of Toronto from the 1940s to the 1980s.

CAT'S EYE Margaret Atwood. Toronto, ON: McClelland and Stewart, 1988. 421pp., cloth, $24.95. ISBN 0-7710-0817-1. CIP. Subject Headings: Women painters-Ontario-Toronto-Fiction. Friendship-Ontario-Toronto-Fiction. Girls-Ontario-Toronto-Fiction. Grades 11 and up / Ages 16 and up Reviewed by Joanne K. A. Peters. Volume 17 Number 1 1989 January Atwood begins this novel by painstakingly pointing out that this is a work of fiction and that "although its form is that of an autobiography, it is not one." Like her creator, Elaine Risley is a well-known artist approaching middle age, whose childhood summers were spent collecting insects in the wilds of Ontario with her scientist father before the family moved to Toronto. Unlike Atwood, Risley is a painter living in Vancouver, and she returns to the city of her childhood to attend a retrospective exhibition of her work. This artistic event occasions a personal retrospective for during the course of her present visit, Risley is constantly confronted by reminders of her past. Cat's Eye is not just a novel about the trials of growing up, nor is it a polemical work about the difficulties of being both an artist and a woman, nor is it merely a commentary on urban angst in the 1980s. All Of these elements are present, but the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. A compelling work, it is not nearly as bleak or as experimental in form as

Hawking in "A Brief History of Time". This seems to be the question that constantly echoes behind Atwood's writing in "Cat's Eye", and the axis around which the novel revolves. In attempting to present her own interpretation of "time", Atwood simply achieves to prove that "nothing goes away", as time is a multi-dimensional shape which exists only in our minds, enabling us to travel around dimensions and be a different person in each one.

Questions for Contemplation or Book Group Discussion 2. Biography 3. Information The Edible Woman is the first published novel by Margaret Atwood. Rich in metaphor, deliciously comic, and glittering with insight, the story chronicles the fantastic and dramatic ego disintegration of Marian McAlprin, who seems at first to be a perfectly conventional young woman, with friends, a successful and attractive man in her life, and a reasonably good job working for a market research company. Everything in her life seems to fly out of control with her engagement, just as Marian seems ready to fulfill "every woman's" dream of trading in her troublesome job for marriage and a new life at home with children. The manner of her collapse and the startling ending make for often hilarious reading. This brilliant and witty early work by one of the most admired novelist of our time contains the hallmark themes in the body of work that inspired Vogue magazine to call Atwood "one of the most intelligent and talented writers to set herself the task of deciphering life in the late twentieth century."

ARE WOMEN EDIBLE? An essay by Kenneth Hermansson To eat or to be eaten, is that the feminine question? The human mouth is made for eating, talking and kissing, is it not? In the novel "The Edible Woman", written by the Canadian author Margaret Atwood, the mouth plays an important role. In this essay I will concentrate on one of the mentioned practises connected to the mouth, the eating, even if it seams that the main character of the novel, Marian has some problems not only with food, but with her social relations and with her love life too. The development of the "eating story" It is possible to discern a development by three steps of Marian’s life throughout the story. They are all connected with food, but also with the position of the narrator. The first part of the story is narrated bybthe main character herself. It begins with her hunger; Marian’s eating seems often to be hampered. " I had to skip the egg and wash down a glass of milk and a bowl of cold cereal which I knew would leave me hungry long before lunch time.

Questions for Contemplation or Book Group Discussion 2. Biography 3. Information "Moving flawlessly from wit to pathos and back, Atwood constructs a superb living exhibit in which the artifacts are unique . . . there is ample treasure in this novel." Chicago Tribune In Margaret Atwood's fourth novel, Elizabeth and Nate are a married couple foundering to preserve their decaying marriage until the suicide of Chris, Elizabeth's lover, illuminates the futility of their efforts. Nate rushes to the arms of Lesje, Elizabeth's timid co-worker at the Natural History Museum's Paleontology department, in retaliation, while Elizabeth fights to regain a modicum of control over both her husband and her crumbling self-esteem. Their adolescent daughters, wrenched by the upset of the divorce, become pawns in Nate, Elizabeth, and Lesje's ensuing struggle to redraw family and battle lines. Atwood draws wry and witty parallels between the lives of her characters and those of the dinosaurs that Elizabeth and Lesje seek to immortalize in their museum exhibits. She reveals the strata of humor and pathos that make up modern familial and romantic love, all the while reminding us of the constant threat of imminent extinction.
