'Brilliant . . . Atwood's prose is searching. So intimate it seems to be written on the skin' Hilary Mantel
'A sensuous, perplexing book, at once sinister and dignified, grubby and gorgeous, panoramic yet specific . . . I don't think I have ever been so thrilled . . . This, surely, is as far as a novel can go' Julie Myerson, Independent on Sunday
'The outstanding novelist of our age' Peter Kemp, Sunday Times
