A treasure trove of collected works from the legendary author of The Handmaid''s Tale and Alias Grace Queen Gertrude gives Hamlet a piece of her mind. An ugly sister and a wicked stepmother put in a good word for themselves. A reincarnated bat explains how Bram Stoker got Dracula hopelessly wrong. Bones and Murder is a bewitching cocktail of prose and poetry, fiction and fairytales, as well as some of Atwood''s own illustrations. It''s pure distilled Atwood: deliciously strong and bittersweet. ''A marvellous miniature sample case of Atwood''s sensuous and sardonic talents'' Times Literary Supplement
