The novel that put Atwood on the literary map

The Edible Woman is both a scathingly funny satire of consumerism and a heady exploration of emotional cannibalism. Marked by blazingly surreal humor and a colorful cast of eccentric characters, it is a groundbreaking work of fiction.  — Penguin Random House, Inc.

A brilliant and powerful work rich in irony and metaphor, The Edible Woman is an unforgettable masterpiece by a true master of contemporary literary fiction.  — Bantam Books

Witty, subversive, hilarious, The Edible Woman is dazzling and utterly original.  — New Canadian Library

Atwood has the magic of turning the particular and the parochial into the universal.  — The Times (London)
