Summary This splendid volume of short fiction testifies to Margaret Atwood's startlingly original voice, full of a rare intensity and exceptional intelligence. Her men and women still miscommunicate, still remain separate in different rooms, different houses, or even different worlds. With brilliant flashes of fantasy, humor, and unexpected violence, the stories reveal the complexities of human relationships and bring to life characters who touch us deeply, evoking terror and laughter, compassion and recognition—and dramatically demonstrate why Margaret Atwood is one of the most important writers in English today.

This story was the first work of any kind I read from Atwood beyond Handmaid’s Tale, which I thought was OK in a blunt-force pc sort of way. But “The Man From Mars” was a pleasant (to me) revelation. It's themes were standard fodder for short stories – overweight and undersized college girl’s self image takes a roller coaster ride when she’s stalked, sort of, but an oddball guy.
But the writing is brilliant and original and deftly mixes creepy, funny, pathetic, mysterious and some other things.

I need to check out more from Atwood. This story was okay and it really puts into light about women who have self esteem issues. It's seems really weird to others how Christina would not call the police and how she was actually glad it was 'someone else who called them' but it shows how low her self-esteem and body image was.

Catcalling is terrible and not a good thing to relish in but those who have terrible body image it just can't be helped. It's really interesting how the mother used the excuse that 'you don't know if it's polite or rude in other cultures'; if it seems weird you should probably ask them.
When someone is asked a question about their culture they usually answer it with enthusiasm or that's how I am. This story was okay but not the best.
