Here is the familiar outer world of family summers at remote lakes, winters of political activism, and seasons of exotic friends, mundane lives, and unexpected loves. But here too is the inner world of hidden places and all that emerges from them - the intimately personal, the fantastic, the shockingly real. Whether it's what lives in a mysterious locked room or the secret feelings we all conceal.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'"Bluebeard's Egg" is a collection of short stories by Canadian author Margaret Atwood, first published in 1983. The book's first American edition was released in 1986 under the name "Bluebeard's Egg and other stories". In this collection, Atwood explores the politics of sex and heterosexual relationships, examining the emotions, betrayals, and casualties of such relationships. Four of the stories in the collection depart from this theme to instead present presumably autobiographic ruminations on the narrator's childhood influences. The majority of these stories are set in downtown Toronto.'
