Labrador West 2011 pop. 9,228 refers to a region in western Labrador in the Canada Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador containing the twin towns of Labrador City and Wabush . The area is located in the southwest corner of Labrador, near the Quebec border and has been described as a dichotomy of pristine wilderness and industrial development.

The adjacent Wabush Mines were established in the 1960s by another company, along with the town of Wabush and the Wabush Lake Railway which connects to the QNSL.

It was published in 1996, and incorporates two of Atwood s longstanding interests of Canadian history and the Canadian wilderness. Labrador refers to the Canadian place rather than the breed of dog. The story contains two stories, one within another. This poses some reading challenges as a constantly swapping point of view can sometimes be hard to follow. The story also fails to reveal the names of the narrator or other main characters, thus making them mysterious to readers.
