Reviews

'York's desire to expose and explore the underside of fame is commendable (and in literary context, novel).', 'Margaret Atwood and the Labour of Literary Celebrityis a ground-breaking analysis of the literary celebrity of Canada's most visible and internationally recognized author. Offering a great deal of insight into the workings of Atwood's career, Lorraine York does a brilliant job tracing the relationship between Atwood as a working writer, embedded in a network of working relationships, and Atwood as celebrity icon. This engaging, compelling study is of enormous importance to literary scholars.'--Gillian Roberts, Department of American and Canadian Studies, University of Nottingham "I thoroughly enjoyed reading this important and splendid book. No other project offers the kind of detailed, focused analysis of the industrial structure of authorship, literary agency, and editing that Lorraine York presents here: her argument takes a genuinely new direction that will certainly be influential. The book is excellently written, accessible, and engaging." --Faye Hammill, School of Humanities, University of Strathclyde "For anyone who labours under the illusion that literary celebrity is an individual endeavour, York throws back the curtain to display the inner workings and many people involved in 'the sizeable task of running the day-to-day business of being Margaret Atwood.'" --Steven W. Beattie, Reviews Editor, Quill & Quire, 'This is a fascinating, well researched examination of Atwood's public literary career... This book provides an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at Atwood's career.... Highly recommended.'--A.M. Laflen, Choice Magazine; vol 51:05:14 'York's desire to expose and explore the underside of fame is commendable (and in literary context, novel).' --Tayt Harlin, TLS, March 7, 2014
