I discovered Margaret Atwood while looking for something quick to read at a random library, on a recent trip. I had fount "The Tent", a collection of ultra-short stories. The impact they made in such few words really impressed me. I wrote down her name resolved to look her up. Two days later, on the way back from the trip, I found one of her novel for sale at the airport! I bought it without a second thought and breezed through most of it in one sitting. Her writing, deceivingly simple, revealed a complexity of thought on the theme of humanity's (lack of) future. I enjoyed her style a lot. I only wish it didn't end where it did. I wanted to know more and am not sure I understood why it just stopped there...
I'm looking forward to finding more stuff of hers.
