The Year of the Flood

London Review of Books

“Atwood has another kind of religion up her sleeve, and it is perhaps the most stimulating new feature of The Year of the Flood ... co-operative egalitarianism and a serene acceptance of the frailties of human nature ... The Year of the Flood gives us the view from below - always, as we well know, the most reliable vantage point from which to gauge and map a society.”

— Fredric Jameson
