By the Book: Bibliography: Margaret Atwood

Widely considered one of the most celebrated writers of our generation, Margaret Atwood’s body of work spans a dizzying variety of genres and themes, from speculative fiction, poetry, environmentalism, feminism, and identity. She has amassed numerous awards, including two Booker Prizes and the Arthur C. Clarke Award. Over the years, her writing, and The Handmaid’s Tale in particular, has also come to symbolise progressive politics in a very particular way. We discuss Atwood’s life and writing, and how her works have shaped the literary world. We close off the conversation by discussing adaptations of her works.
