Reviews
It is sometimes debated whether every great novelist must first be a great poet. If you look at the likes of poets-turned-novelists like Jesse Ball or Denis Johnson, you might be inclined to agree. Don't forget Margaret Atwood, who began publishing poetry in the early-1960s, self-publishing her first collection, Double Persephone, in 1961. Her latest poems collected in Dearly include melancholy meditations on life and death and the gender of werewolves., Aging, rituals, and the environment are a few topics [Atwood] spins her magic yarn around in this structurally creative, soulfully stirring slim tome. . . . We need [Atwood], now., Atwood's flare for precise metaphor in no way softens her delivery. . . . Combining the wit of Dorothy Parker with the wisdom of Emily Dickinson, Atwood adds a steely grace and richness of her own. If there is beauty in despair, one may find it here., "For the first time in more than a decade, Atwood -- an accomplished poet, though best known for "The Handmaid's Tale," among other novels -- is releasing a wide-ranging new collection of poetry. It's hauntingly beautiful, with reflections on life and death, time and change, and nature and zombies. The strong imagery and atmosphere will probably hook even those who had only been familiar with Atwood's fiction.", Margaret Atwood deserves an adjective - Atwoodian - in recognition of her virtuoso wit and unmistakeable style., Here we see Atwood at the height of her poetic powers...The more Atwood wields specifics, the more of the world she skewers with her fantastically sharp imagination., Atwood's first books were poetry collections; decades later, she infuses her newest poems with the flinty wit and surefire lucidity readers cherish in her best-selling, influential fiction, including The Testaments. Spiked with surprising juxtapositions and wily delight in language, at times mordant, frequently hilarious, and always unflinching., "Aging, rituals, and the environment are a few topics [Atwood] spins her magic yarn around in this structurally creative, soulfully stirring slim tome. . . . We need [Atwood], now." -- Good Morning America "Margaret Atwood deserves an adjective - Atwoodian - in recognition of her virtuoso wit and unmistakeable style." -- Chicago Tribune "Atwood's new book--her first collection of poems in over a decade--is a good reminder of her mastery of the craft. In Dearly, Atwood's inspirations run the gamut from the intoxicating pleasures of nature to the fantastical goings-on of zombies, but the themes are grounded in the familiar: love, loss, desire and the inevitability of time passing. Atwood blurs the lines of what we know and asks us instead to give credence to what we feel." -- Time "It is sometimes debated whether every great novelist must first be a great poet.

[is] always illuminated by characteristic flashes of brilliance and wit, and powered by a pure force of creative energy. . . . Atwood's poetry is vibrant with purpose, brilliant, hard-edged, and instantly legible; and they will doubtless become classics of our troubled time." -- The Scotsman "Atwood... returns with a sardonic and sagacious masterpiece to add to her significant oeuvre...Atwood has a knack for creating piquant emotional textures, infusing ideas, experiences, and objects with palpable life...Combining dignified vulnerability, lyrical whimsy, and staunch realism, Atwood offers a memorable collection that emboldens readers to welcome disillusionment." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Here we see Atwood at the height of her poetic powers...The more Atwood wields specifics, the more of the world she skewers with her fantastically sharp imagination." -- New York Times Book Review, The soaring quality of the verse itself . . .
