Margaret Atwood has long been a literary titan, and her words continue to resonate with every generation. Her landmark novel The Handmaid’s Tale(1985) was adapted into a fifteen-time Emmy Award-winning television series, and its sequel, The Testaments, won the 2019 Booker Prize. With wit and humor, Atwood reveals hidden truths in our societies, inspiring you to speak out against injustice and preparing you for the battle ahead. Today, her sharp eye is more crucial—and prescient—than ever.
