Critics Review

It stirs depths that CAT’S EYE did not reach, and grants deeper, stronger powers to women’s friendship in distress - Marina Warner

Margaret Atwood’s new novel is a fairy tale of malicious simplicity. Fay Weldon’s SHE-DEVIL meets John Updike’s WITCHES OF EASTWICK…Vividly written, acutely observed and very likely the most intelligently tongue in cheek novel of the year. - Salman Rushdie, INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

Excitements, wit and insight sizzle across the pages. Atwood’s survey of impulses that bedevil life seethes with imagination, inventiveness and intelligence. Even she has never written better than in this novel of glittering breadth and dark, eerie depths. - SUNDAY TIMES

The virtuosity with which Margaret Atwood’s prose moves between rage and wit, poignancy and suspense, fantasy and realism makesTHE ROBBER BRIDE a stimulating read. THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
