Now, the TV adaptation of the novel has turned Atwood's handmaids into a symbol around the globe. But who is Margaret Atwood? Rosemary Sullivan, award-winning biographer and poet, has penned the first portrait of Canada's most famous novelist, a woman who helped to shatter the paradigm of the artist as exclusively male.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Margaret Atwood: Starting Out, Rosemary Sullivan explores the trajectory of a remarkable writer's career. She focuses on Atwood's formative years through to the late 1970s, when the major elements of Atwood's life--the publication of Surfacing, Power Politics, and The Edible Woman; her relationship with writer Graeme Gibson; the birth of her daughter; and her focus on Canadian culture--are set in place. A stunning blend of narrative and meditation, of discovery and insight, Margaret Atwood: Starting Out is a major portrait of one of Canada's most provocative writers who is out ahead, throwing back clues about the pleasure and pitfalls of being human. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"An exemplary work of literary biography.\" --Toronto Star\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rosemary Sullivan","offers":[{"title":"Fantastic","offer_id":46144317686003,"sku":"2770002404011","price":12.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/files\/9781443460743.jpg?v=1725012052","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/margaret-atwood-starting-out-rosemary-sullivan-9781443460743","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
