After more than a decade, Margaret Atwood returns to poetry with Dearly, a stunning collection that reminds us why she’s one of our most essential contemporary voices—equally masterful in fiction and verse.

These poems feel like intimate conversations held at twilight, where Atwood’s signature wit and wisdom illuminate life’s most profound questions. She explores love in all its forms, the ache of loss, the strange comfort of memory, and yes—even zombies find their way onto these pages. Only Atwood could weave together the deeply personal and the delightfully unexpected with such grace.

Her observant eye, honed through decades of groundbreaking work including The Handmaid’s Tale and The Testaments, turns inward here. The result is poetry that’s both introspective and universal, intimate yet expansive. She contemplates the passage of time with the perspective of someone who has lived fully and observed carefully, finding beauty and meaning in nature’s rhythms and human resilience.

This collection is essential reading for:

  • Longtime Atwood devotees who’ve been waiting for new poetry
  • Readers discovering her poetic voice for the first time
  • Anyone seeking thoughtful, masterfully crafted verse that speaks to our contemporary moment

Whether you’ve followed Atwood through dystopian futures or are just discovering her work, Dearly showcases a writer at the height of her powers, proving that great poetry can be both accessible and profound, playful and deeply moving.
