Margaret Atwood is one of the world’s leading writers and thinkers. She is also a formidable personality. At the root of everything that Atwood writes, be it poetry or prose, is her piercing intelligence and clarity of thought – characteristics that would make her an asset to any literary movement. Yet, she has repeatedly defied categorisation and will not be casually aligned to any agenda. Her new novel MaddAddam is the concluding part to the Oryx and Crake Trilogy, charactered by the remnants of humanity after the Waterless Flood pandemic. As always, this novel is a medium for the profound creations of Atwood’s marvellous intellect. Join us for this fantastic opportunity to meet a true icon, and experience her inimitable eloquence, fusing speculation, politics and emotional insight.
