Margaret Atwood: A Word after a Word after a Word is Power
Millions of readers know her books from cover to cover. Her 1985 instant-classic, The Handmaid’s Tale spawned a zeitgeist-defining, award-winning TV series. With over 50 works of prescient fiction, essays (and even a graphic novel!) to her name, Margaret Atwood shows no signs of slowing down. But how much do you really know about the woman behind the stories? In this revealing new documentary, the literary icon and national treasure guides us through her rich private life—from her upbringing in the Canadian wilderness and her early years as a poet—all the way to the set of The Handmaid’s Tale and the recent release of its follow-up, The Testaments, one of the most anticipated novels of the decade.
