The publication of The Handmaidâs Tale in 1985 and the current, Emmy-award winning television series have created a sweeping global cultural phenomenon, as âhandmaidsâ have become a symbol of womenâs rights, standing against misogyny and oppression.
In Conversation with Margaret Atwood is an Australian premiere literary event spanning the breadth of Atwoodâs remarkable career, her diverse range of works and why, in the Booker Award winning The Testaments, she has returned to her seminal story, 34 years later.
Join us for an unmissable evening of conversation, discussion and Q & A with one of the most vital authors of her generation, as Margaret Atwood shares her signature insight, humour and intellect.
âA word, after a word, after a word, is powerâ Margaret Atwood
In Conversation with Margaret Atwood will be hosted by Meri Farin.
