Critique 8


The Female Body by Margaret Atwood is a very unique piece of writing.  Made up of six parts, it lists different things about a woman and her body.  It remains general, thought the narrator is in first person.  Atwood uses many lists; for instance, the third paragraph consists of a list of accessories of the female body.  She relates the female body to a barbie doll, which basically objectives it.  I am not sure what the author is trying to convey in this piece of creative nonfiction.  Perhaps she is showing how the world objectives the female body.
