Overview
Publicada en 1985, Chicas bailarinas es la aclamada primera colección de relatos de Margaret Atwood. Sus catorce piezas combinan numerosas técnicas y perspectivas para capturar los movimientos imprevisibles de personajes inmersos en la vida cotidiana contemporánea, pero no por ello menos fascinantes. Quien se acerque a este volumen descubrirá no solo los destinos de amas de casa, estudiantes, periodistas, granjeros, ornitólogos, exesposas y amantes adolescentes, sino también que cada voz tiene su tono, y que el talento de la autora se niega a las soluciones fáciles: nada es manido en Atwood, pero todo es tan probable que casi parece real.
Con brillantes destellos de fantasía, humor y momentos de violencia inesperada, los cuentos revelan las complejidades de las relaciones humanas y suscitan el terror y la risa, la compasión y el reconocimiento, al tiempo que recalcan el lugar de preeminencia que ocupa la escritora en la literatura contemporánea.
