Description
Summary:The paper aims at exploring Margaret Atwood’s vision in her books emphasized in an interview written by Bland Jared, “It's 'scary' watching aspects of her fiction come to life, Margaret Atwood says”, August 24, 2013. We have chosen this interview because Margaret Atwood presents in detail her intentions with some of her books. The author has been drawn into the feminist camp, and she has been famously denying such involvement. In the interview she explains how aspects of her fiction came to life as a consequence of our past actions. The purpose of this article is to highlight the arguments that build up her belief and the roots of inspiration for some of her novels. The article can be useful to students focusing on the Canadian fictional novels with a particular interest in feminism.
