• “This is a Photograph of Me” opens The Circle Game, Canadian writer Margaret Atwood’s 1964 collection of poetry.

• As the speaker of this free verse poem describes a blurry photograph to the audience, the image's implications continuously transform. As such, the photograph becomes a means of exploring the malleability of history and truth, particularly with regard to the suppression of marginalized voices.
