Synopsis
Joan Foster is the bored wife of a myopic ban-the-bomber. She takes off overnight as Canada's new superpoet, pens lurid gothics on the sly, attracts a blackmailing reporter, skids cheerfully in and out of menacing plots, hair-raising traps, and passionate trysts, and lands dead and well in Terremoto, Italy. In this remarkable, poetic, and magical novel, Margaret Atwood proves yet again why she is considered to be one of the most important and accomplished writers of our time.

Review
'Funny, poignant, and briskly energetic.' (Newsweek)
'A really gifted writer ... alternately satirical and lyrical.' (TIME)
'A very funny novel, lightly told with wry detachment and considerable art.' (Washington Post Book World)
Review
If you feel safe only with "nine to five" reality, you'll probably not enjoy her books. But if you'd like to lift off, try her (COSMOPOLITAN)
Shrewd, funny, intelligent, honest, ironic (SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY)
