Well worth picking up

4 stars

I've enjoyed several Margaret Atwood novels over the years, but didn't realise she had also published short story collections until I spotted this one at a charity book sale. It was only a Euro and is even signed! Then ten stories are, as I would expect from Atwood, wonderfully well written and I enjoyed reading them all. Often I find short story collections to be a bit hit and miss, but that was absolutely not true in this case. Now, a couple of days after finishing the book, that I have come to write this review however, I realise that I can't actually remember all the stories individually. Instead, a couple of the storylines are memorable - particularly and the title story, Wilderness Tips - whereas the others have already receded to snapshot moments and images. Don't let that discourage you though - this one is well worth picking up!
