Motifs
[edit]As in most of Atwood's works, this collection of poetry explores many tensions or dualities such as the tensions between man and woman, perception and reality, and many more. The Circle Game focuses particularly on the tension between perception and reality; at first glance something may seem harmless or even friendly, but deeper inspection reveals a dark, sad, or disturbing truth.
