A woman of prodigious talents

Margaret Atwood - perhaps my most favourite author was interview recently by Jennifer Byrne and was shown on the ABC tonight. Surprisingly I have never seen her interviewed before and she was just as witty and engaging as I could have wished for.

I have read almost all her books (except her latest - which I shall remedy shortly) and loved them all . . . . .except Oryx and Crake. Perhaps I wasn't in the mood.

I had just reread The Handmaid's Tale, which was quite serendipitous.
