Lady Oracle

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale-now an Emmy Award-winning Hulu original series-and Alias Grace, now a Netflix original series.

Joan Foster is a bored wife, confused by her life of multiple identities. She takes off overnight as Canada's new superpoet, pens lurid gothics on the sly, attracts a blackmailing reporter, skids cheerfully in and out of menacing plots, hair-raising traps, and passionate trysts, and lands in Terremoto, Italy to take stock of her life. But first, she must plan her own death. . . In this remarkable, poetic, and magical novel, Margaret Atwood proves yet again why she is considered to be one of the most important and accomplished writers of our time.
