    There is nothing so good as learning about the craft of writing from one of the best.

    the background music is unnecessary. the outfits are gorgeous. Margaret Atwood is brilliant and I am in constant awe 💜

    "It could never happen here..." how naive we were.

    I could listen to her forever. Such a calm demeanor and voice, and of course, brilliant.

    What about lands where people no longer read books to learn about the shadowy places of politics and other industries? In those lands where people no longer read, what pass for knowledge is something available through media and the effects of such interactions through social media and other crude forms, are not surely healthy. That's why books are important. The countries where people read have hope in some manner.

    Loose the awful background music. Very jarring.

    Why is this intelligent, educated and accomplished author so often interviewed by hacks?

    That short continuum of fiction and the distinction between scifi and speculative fiction was the clearest explanation I've heard.

    It kind of is funny, Canada has been much closer to handmaid's tale then the US all throughout this C charade we have experienced.

      I don't that you could support such a claim. Or use the correct form of than.

    The future will look like Handmaids Tale. This woman predicted it perfectly

    I really want to know her opinion of the emergencies act when it was called. It was shocking to the rest of us Canadians

    • @seanwebb605
      @seanwebb605 2 місяці тому

      What was shocking was that the Ontario provincial government didn't intervene and allowed it to progress to the point that the Emergencies Act was used.
