"The Edible Woman" by Margaret Atwood is a witty and incisive exploration of societal expectations, gender roles, and the search for identity in the context of a woman's evolving relationship with herself and the world around her. The novel follows Marian McAlpin, a young woman working in consumer research in Toronto, as she grapples with the pressures and expectations placed upon her as a woman in the 1960s. Marian's life takes an unexpected turn when she becomes engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Peter. As the wedding plans progress, Marian's sense of self begins to unravel. She finds herself increasingly objectified, feeling like a piece of meat in a world where women are often reduced to their societal roles and expectations.
