The Labrador Fiasco by Margaret Atwood


The Labrador Fiasco
Margaret Atwood
1996, Bloomsbury, London
0747528896
41p.

Short story from Margaret Atwood about a woman visiting her father who has had a stroke and reading an adventure story together.

This was a great short story, and I love that it's in a little book format, all to itself. The adventure story about the ill-fated white men exploring the northern wilderness was very interesting and apparently true. And I liked the way it tied in with the story of the father.
