In one article, the author, goes on to say that Canadian writes, especially female ones, have the power to evoke drama and reveling and captivating stories; Atwood is mentioned alongside L.M Montgumery (Anne of Green Gables) Nellie McLung and Pauline Johnson.
In another article, Margaret is paired alongside such famous authors such as Steven King, Charles Dickens, this time, for her novel The Blind Asssassin.
To be honest, I love Steven King's work, and his works and opinions are quite valid. To be listed amoungst one of the best authors along side him, that just goes to show how well-written Atwood's work is.

Atwood writes in so many different genres, that she could in fact be compared to many other writers. She is definitely a prolific writer! She is an artist too - did you know that?
