Margaret Atwood: Dearly
About the Event:
While many know Margaret Atwood for her dystopian novels The Handmaid’s Tale (1985) and the MaddAddam trilogy, her distinguished career began via another medium: poetry. Audiences eagerly awaiting Atwood’s return to the form will not be disappointed with her first collection in over a decade. Dearly is an introspective and intimate reflection on love, loss, and the passage of time. Come hear the singular voice and mind of Margaret Atwood at play, reflecting on the role of writing in helping us to understand our past and prepare for the future. Atwood is joined in conversation by CHF Marilynn Thoma Artistic Director Alison Cuddy.
