From cultural icon Margaret Atwood comes a brilliant collection of essays
- funny, erudite, endlessly curious, uncannily prescient
- which seek answers to Burning Questions such as:
Why do people everywhere, in all cultures, tell stories?
How much of yourself can you give away without evaporating?
How can we live on our planet?
In over fifty pieces Atwood aims her prodigious intellect & impish humour at our world, & reports back to us on what she finds. The roller-coaster period covered in the collection brought an end to the end of history, a financial crash, the rise of Trump & a pandemic.
From debt to tech, the climate crisis to freedom; from when to dispense advice to the young (answer: only when asked) to how to define granola, we have no better questioner of the many & varied mysteries of our human universe.
