In her paper, the main part of the essey. the quotation would say "(Atwood page number)". For example "(Atwood 210-234)". In her bibliography that is works cited the citation would look like this:

Atwood, Margaret. Waltzing Again: New and Selected Conversations with Margaret Atwood. Ed. Earl G. Ingersoll. Princeton: Ontario Review, 2006. Print.

This would be option A of your question. It is important to note that editors go after the title of the book. Keep that in mind. Also the name of the book has to be in italics.
