Margaret Atwood/ Imagery of Smells in 'Surfacing'
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page analysis of Margaret Atwood's novel Surfacing, a psychologically oriented novel that describes how the unnamed narrator seeks unity and reanimation of the parts of her psyche that she suppressed in order to survive. This is a complex novel, which is permeated with multiple layers of meaning, but it is basically the story of a fragmented woman becoming whole again. In relating this journey, the writer argues that Atwood relies heavily on imagery that focuses on the narrator's heightened senses, and—particularly—on her sense of smell.
