Burning Questions
Margaret Atwood
The Sunday Times bestselling collection of funny, endlessly curious and uncannily prescient essays from cultural icon Margaret Atwood.
In it she seeks answers to Burning Questions such as:
- Why do people everywhere, in all cultures, tell stories?
- How can we live on our planet?
- What do zombies have to do with authoritarianism?
In Burning Questions Atwood aims her prodigious intellect and impish humour at our world, and reports back to us on what she finds. The roller-coaster period covered in the collection brought an end to the end of history, a financial crash, the rise of Trump and a pandemic. From debt to tech, the climate crisis to freedom; from when to dispense advice to the young (answer- only when asked) to how to define granola, we have no better questioner of the many and varied mysteries of our human universe.
Includes new essays in this paperback edition.
