Margaret Atwood on her new memoir and the inspiration behind “The Handmaid’s Tale.”
Brut journalist Fatima D. recently sat down with legendary Canadian author Margaret Atwood — best known for “The Handmaid’s Tale,” the novel that became a hit TV series set in a dystopian, totalitarian theocratic America.
But her work goes far beyond that; she’s written more than 60 books across fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. She recently published “Book of Lives: A Memoir of Sorts,” where she reflects on her life and the inspirations that have shaped her over the years.
