Description:
<p>As a part of the launch of the new A List series, a curated selection of titles from Anansi's backlist featuring handsome new covers and introductions by well-known writers, comes Margaret Atwood's Governor General's Literary Award–winning <em>The Circle Game</em>, with an introduction by Suzanne Buffam.</p>
<p>The appearance of Margaret Atwood's first major collection of poetry marked the beginning of a truly outstanding career in Canadian and international letters. The voice in these poems is as witty, vulnerable, direct, and incisive as we've come to know in later works, such as <em>Power Politics</em>, <em>Bodily Harm</em>, and <em>Alias Grace</em>. Atwood writes compassionately about the risks of love in a technological age, and the quest for identity in a universe that cannot quite be trusted.</p>
<p>Containing many of Atwood's best and most famous poems, <em>The Circle Game</em> won the 1966 Governor General's Literary Award for Poetry and rapidly attained an international reputation as a classic of modern poetry.</p>
