Murder in the Dark ~ by Margaret Atwood, 1983, fiction, 110 pages
These short fictions and prose poems are beautifully bizarre: bread can no longer be thought of as wholesome comforting loaves; the pretensions of the male chef are subjected to a light roasting; a poisonous brew is concocted by cynical five-year-olds; and knowing when to stop is of deadly importance in a game of Murder in the Dark.
I first mentioned this book several weeks ago, HERE. I didn't realize that I've had it so long.
It's a short book, though, so I should be able to get through the whole thing easily this weekend.
