Description

Joan Foster may be the bored wife of the shortsighted bar-the-bomber.  She will take off immediately as Canada's new superpoet, pencils lurid gothics to the sly, draws a blackmailing writer, skids happily in and out-of threatening plots, hair-raising barriers, and passionate trysts, and countries useless and nicely in Terremoto, Italy.  In this amazing, graceful, and enchanting book, Margaret Atwood demonstrates all over again why she's regarded as among the most significant and accomplished writers of our time.
