She is also known for her deep interest in Canada and Canadian fiction, a theme that shows up both in the settings and atmosphere of her fiction and in her non-fiction and edited work. She is also a prolific poet, with several chapbooks and major collections published.
She is perhaps best known for her tale of an future dystopia in the science fiction novel The Handmaid's Tale, her Booker Prize-winning novel The Blind Assassin, as well as many other stories.
