You Are Happy is a 1974 collection of poems by Canadian writer Margaret Atwood.
The book contains the following poems:
• Composed of 24 unnamed poems
A poetry review in The New York Times called "Songs of the transformed" "a splendid series of animal poems ... [able] to capture the natural world and yet to manage to make a larger statement.", [1] and Manijeh Mannani of Athabasca University found that it "continue[s] the same thread of feminist concerns [of her previous poetry] with only the concluding poems of the collection reflecting the optimistic connotation inherent in the title." [2]
a joyless collection that seems professionally committed to "badtiming" it.
