By turns comfortable and funny, scary and marked, Bluebeardis Egg glows with childhood memories, the truth of parents growing older, and the casual cruelty men and women go on one another. This is actually the months of routine lives, unique buddies, and unforeseen loves, winters of governmental activism, and accustomed external planet of household summers at distant ponds. But here also may be the internal world of hidden locations and all that exists from their store-the totally personal, the great, the surprisingly true,be it what lives in a strange closed space or even the key emotions we all hide. In this remarkable and far-ranging selection, Margaret Atwood demonstrates why she's a genuine master of the style.
