Bodily Harm

Margaret Atwood

A journalist chasing a soft travel feature lands in a Caribbean election that turns violent, and cannot write her way out.

Rennie is a lifestyle journalist recovering from a mastectomy who takes an assignment on a Caribbean island, expecting sun and a soft feature. She arrives during an election that turns violent and finds herself detained, with no consular help and no way to write herself out of it. Atwood is interested here in what tourism refuses to see.
