A treasure trove of collected works from the legendary author of The Handmaid’s Tale and Alias Grace

Queen Gertrude gives Hamlet a piece of her mind.
An ugly sister and a wicked stepmother put in a good word for themselves.
A reincarnated bat explains how Bram Stoker got Dracula hopelessly wrong.

Bones and Murder is a bewitching cocktail of prose and poetry, fiction and fairytales, as well as some of Atwood’s own illustrations. It’s pure distilled Atwood: deliciously strong and bittersweet.

‘A marvellous miniature sample case of Atwood’s sensuous and sardonic talents’ Times Literary Supplement

Reviews

Full of fun and invention, with an edge that cuts through preconceptions ... an entertaining sampler of Atwood's cleverness and imagination
NICOLETTE Jones, INDEPENDENT on Sunday
Everything she forms in words has substance and weight
DAILY TELEGRAPH
Atwood's offbeat fiction is always charming, insightful and provocative.
