Thoughts on Margaret Atwood? :marseyhandmaid: :marseygilead::marseyflagcanada:

Unable to load image

Those who read her books, what are your honest thoughts on them? I know her works are famous for being foidshit :marseywomenrentfree:, still that doesn't mean they aren't well written.

I only read Orxy and Crake along with the sequel The Looming Tower and found them both to be quite good as well as being somewhat precient.

Jimmy and Crake spend much of their leisure time playing online games, smoking "skunkweed", and watching underground videos such as live executions, graphic surgery, Noodie News, frog squashing, and child pornography.[3][4][5] During one of their child pornography viewings, Jimmy is very much lovestruck and horrified by the gazing eyes of a young girl seen in the porn known as Hott Tott.

At the Rejoov compound, Jimmy notices a human in the Craker habitat and thinks he recognizes her as the girl from the pornographic video. Seemingly unaware of Jimmy's obsession with her, Crake explains that her name is Oryx and that he has hired her as a teacher for the Crakers. Oryx notices Jimmy's feelings for her and makes herself sexually available to him, despite also being Crake's romantic partner.

Yeah, there's several other messed up aspects to the book. I feel like Atwood is like a female Brett Easton Ellis, butt with weaker prose.

I remember reading it and she used the phrase ‘Soy o boy' for some kind of soy product. This was before those memes were a thing.

Oryx and crake were weird. Initially had me hooked but got worse and worse and ended anti climatically. Also the portrayal of porn use was pretty divorced from actually teen boys usage

Agreed, particularly with the ending which lead me to read rhe sequel, that and because I was required to read it in college.
