Hengen (English, Laurentian U., Canada) and Thomson, a librarian at Laurentian U., provide a bibliography of Margaret Atwood's works from 1988 to 2005 and writings about them by others, including books, articles, short stories, letters, and poetry, as well as adaptations and quotations, organized chronologically by year. Secondary entries such as interviews, scholarly resources, and reviews are organized by type and then alphabetically. Many of the entries are annotated. Both subject and author indexes are included. A guide to selected sources on the internet is provided by Alain Lamothe, electronic reference librarian at Laurentian U. The book, which continues where Judith McCombs and Carole L. Palmer's Margaret Atwood: A Reference Guide (1991) left off, is intended for scholars and fans of the author. It grew out of the annual checklists prepared for the Margaret Atwood Society, which is authored by Hengen and Thomson..
