How to play the Margaret Atwood books timeline

Every card is a Margaret Atwood book, title only, and you place them by the year each was first published. You begin with one book on the line, its year in view. Read each new card and drop it into a gap among the books already down. When you're right, the year appears; a wrong guess sends the book to its real place and takes one of your three lives.

Atwood has written poetry throughout her career alongside novels, short stories and speculative fiction, and all of it appears here. Many of the poetry titles are unfamiliar even to readers of her novels. The novels are spread out, but the poems and stories in between are where most lives go.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
