About this audiobook
Good Bones, Simple Murders and The Tent collects together three classic books of short stories.
Queen Gertrude gives Hamlet a piece of her mind and a reincarnated bat explains how Bram Stoker got Dracula hopelessly wrong in Good Bones
Knowing when to stop is of deadly importance in a game of Murder in the Dark.
And a cat goes to heaven and discovers new playthings in The Tent
In this bewitching cocktail of prose and poetry, fiction and fairytales, Margaret Atwood brings her astonishing world view to the comings and goings of ordinary life.
Praise for Good Bones:

Praise for Murder in the Dark:
'Direct, unpretentious, humorous' -SUNDAY TIMES
Praise for The Tent:
'These are fine, original takes on ancient stories ... How knowing she is; how quick. How easily she mocks herself, and us. She is our medicine' - INDEPENDENT
