I'm far from an expert but I suppose the Handmaid's Tale is the obvious one. I'm only reading it now, it's been sitting on my shelf for, God, 5 years now.finished my first Margaret Atwood book today, Th Blind Assassin. Loved it. especially the last 100 pages. Perfect for a nothing Sunday evening. recommendations on where to go with her stuff from here?
Her earlier stuff tends to be less sci-fi and often very Canadian focused so choose a direction i guess. I loved Cats Eye myself and would recommend it to anyone.
The Maddaam trilogy is the other big one, i haven't read the 3rd book in it and everyone seems to hate it but the first two are really great!
I hear nothing but bad things about The Heart Goes Last as well. A few people I know who are big fan say she's a lot more hit and miss than the general internet of feminism want her to be so bear that in mind.
