Poetry by individual poets, Fiction, Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945), Short stories
Margaret Atwood's classic short fictions reissued with a stunning new jacket style along with others from Margaret Atwood's backlist.
These short fictions and prose poems are beautifully bizarre: bread can no longer be thought of as wholesome comforting loaves; the pretensions of the male chef are subjected to a loght roasting; a poisonous brew is concocted by cynical five year olds; and knowing when to stop is of deadly importance in a game of Murder in the Dark.
