青ひげの卵 (Tankobon Hardcover)

The stories often feel rooted in realism but are infused with subtle fantastical elements. I'm curious how she balances these tones and what inspired this approach.

The tone shifts subtly between lighthearted and somber, which made me wonder if that contrast was intentional or reflective of the themes.

The recurring motif added a layered depth to the collection. I'm interested in what symbolic or thematic significance Atwood might have been exploring.
