Check out the Science Fiction Research Bibliography. For more information on feminist SF, see the Introduction Epigraphs Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 ... Historical Notes Many readers are surprised to hear Atwood's novel labeled science fiction, but it belongs squarely in the long tradition of near-future dystopias which has made up a large part of SF since the early50s. SF need not involve technological innovation: it has been a long-standing principle that social change can provide the basis for SF just as well as technical change. The Handmaid's Tale is partly an extrapolation of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, But another social controversy also underlies this novel. During the early 80s a debate raged (and continues to rage, on a lower level) about feminist attitudes toward sexuality and pornography in particular. Outspoken feminists have taken all kinds of positions: that all erotica depicting women as sexual objects is demeaning, that pornography was bad though erotica can be good, that although most pornography is demeaning the protection of civil liberties is a greater good which requires the toleration of freedom for pornographers, however distasteful, even that such a thing as feminist pornography can and should be created. The sub-theme of this tangled debate which seems to have particularly interested and alarmed Atwood is the tendency of some feminist anti-porn groups to ally themselves with religious anti-porn zealots who oppose the feminists on almost every other issue. The language of "protection of women" could slip from a demand for more freedom into a retreat from freedom, to a kind of neo-Victorianism. After all, it was the need to protect "good" women from sex that justified all manner of repression in the 19th century, including confining them to the home, barring them from participating in the arts, and voting. Contemporary Islamic women sometimes argue that assuming the veil and traditional all-enveloping clothing is aimed at dealing with sexual harassment and sexual objectification. The language is feminist, but the result can be deeply patriarchal, as in this novel.

    Extractions: Margaret Atwood was born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada on Nov. 18, 1939. Her father, Carl Atwood, was a forest entomologist, whose work, studying insects, kept the family in the forests of Ontario for much of her childhood. In her seventh year, her family moved to Toronto. She attended the University of Toronto, majoring in English, with minors in Philosophy and French. She received her BA with honors in 1961, after which she went on to get her master's degree from Radcliffe College in Massachussets, in 1962. She did two two-year periods of study at Harvard for her Ph.D., but writing was paramount, and she never finished. Margaret Atwood self-published her first collection of poems, Double Persephone , in 1961. The Circle Game was published by Cranbrook Academy of Art in 1964 and won the governor general's award for poetry. Since then, over 15 collections of her poetry have been published, many running several editions, and individual poems have appeared in magazines and journals too numerous to mention.

    Extractions: satisfaction of a clean, folded towel BY LAURA MILLER an Salon met up with Atwood during her recent visit to San Francisco, where she professed to be able to guess how many servants it took to maintain the city's various Victorian mansions, just by looking. You've written about Grace Marks before. Yes, a TV scenario, produced in 1974 by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, but it used only one version of the story, which was the only version that I knew at that time. That was [journalist] Susanna Moodie's rather theatrical and Dickensian write-up of the case. I was young and I thought non-fiction meant "true," and I believed her mostly. I didn't believe the part where she had Nancy being cut up into four pieces before being placed underneath the wash-tub, because I thought, "Why would they do that? Wouldn't it take a lot of time? And which four pieces? Why four and why do it at all?" So, that gave you a germ of suspicion.

Noted for her stylistic precision, caustic humor, and feminist concerns, Atwood has published more than 40 books of fiction, nonfiction, criticism, and poetry over the past four decades. With her first novel, THE EDIBLE WOMAN (1969), about a young woman in 1960s Canada sent into a tailspin by her impending marriage, Atwood introduced the themes of gender relations and women's social roles that would inform much of her work. Her most famous novel, THE HANDMAID'S TALE (1985), projected those topics into a dystopian future in which women are thoroughly subjugated by a totalitarian theocracy, and "handmaids" are forced to breed children for the state. The book won both the Los Angeles Times Prize for Fiction and the Arthur C. Clarke Award for science fiction.

40. INTERVIEW WITH MARGARET ATWOOD
    By Raymond H. Thompson in the series Thompson s Interviews with Authors of Modern Arthurian Literature .  
    http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/intrvws/atwood.htm
    
    Extractions: This interview was the only one in the collection where I encountered technical difficulties with the taping process. Whether the tape was affected by airport security machines, the tape recorder malfunctioned, or (more likely) I failed to press the correct buttons on it, I ended up with a blank tape. I reconstructed what I could remember of Atwood's responses to my questions, but could produce, regrettably, little more than a summary, even though she was kind enough to add a few clarifications. Since Atwood could recall few details about the composition of her Arthurian work, an early sequence of seven short poems entitled "Avalon Revisited" that was published in The Fiddlehead , 55 (1963), 10-13, the result is a very brief account indeed. After the difficulties we had arranging the interview, this is a disappointment, but I remain grateful to the author for finding the time to talk to me on a chilly March afternoon in Toronto about poetry she had forgotten she ever wrote. Having gone on to establish herself among the foremost of contemporary authors, Atwood looks back on this early work as little more than one part of the process of finding her own voice as a writer. It offers, nonetheless, a fascinating glimpse of a stage in the development of an important figure in the field of contemporary literature.
