Margaret Atwood Revisited, Karen Stein
Karen F Stein
Fiction writer, poet, critic, cartoonist, editor, children's book author, lecturer, teacher, and activist, Margaret Atwood is a major figure in the contemporary flowering of Canadian literature. This book provides an overview of Atwood's works, focusing on central themes, especially the paradoxes and possibilities of storytelling, sexual politics, and quests. Atwood's protagonists are storytellers, witnesses to a world that is often confusing and dangerous; the fictions these characters invent about their lives can become traps, self-fulfilling prophecies, or liberating fictions.

Excavating The Expendable Working Classes In "The Imperialist", Teresa Hubel

Gothic novels also explore the position of women in the home and family. Laurence incorporates Gothic conventions but modifies them, allowing her heroine, Rachel, to find her own voice(s) and escape from the guilt, shame, and imprisonment of her past.
