One day on campus an odd, shabbily dressed Asian man approaches her and strikes up a conversation. She senses there is something wrong with him and reluctantly agrees to give him her name. Christine is not as pretty as her two sisters and most men she meets through tennis or the debating society see her as 'one of the guys'. The man calls her house and her mother, maybe relieved Christine seems to have a suiter, suggests he come to tea one day and he invites himself next Thursday.

He begins to stalk her. Her father calls the police who take extra care with the case because of his position. There is a lot in this story and I don't want to spoil it for potential readers by telling more of the plot. The ending is really interesting.

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.

It's like catcalling; you know it's really bad and that you shouldn't stand for that sort of stuff but at the same time for females or males who don't have good self-esteem at all they might relish it because i This story was okay and it really puts into light about women who have self esteem issues.

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.
