Abstract

Margaret Atwood is one of the most influential and prolific female writers in contemporary Canada and she is also known as the “Queen of Canadian Literature”. Her works involve gender, ethnicity, ecology, politics and other fields, and constantly reflect on human survival through revealing the nature of society. In The MaddAddam Trilogy, Atwood explores the plight faced by modern people by analyzing the alienated relations between the protagonists and themselves, others and society, and embodies Atwood’s humanistic concern. Therefore, based on Fromm’s theory of alienation, this paper interprets the theme of alienation in the trilogy, discusses its causes and solutions, in order to solve the dilemma of modern people’s existence and promote the healthy development of their personality.
