We will discuss the book in English, but you may read the book in any language that suits you. You are also welcome to join us if you have watched the TV series or the movie version of "The Handmaid's Tale".

Practicalities

You're welcome to bring your own food. We will sell soft drinks, beer and wine from our mobile bar, and you can buy coffee or tea from our vending machine.

Make sure you get the right ticket, as there are two different kinds of tickets:

Livestream only (7.00 p.m.)

We look very much forward to seeing you, and hope a lot of you will join us for the early part of the event.

About Margaret Atwood

With books such as "Alias Grace", the "Oryx and Crake" series and "The Handmaid's Tale", world-renowned Margaret Atwood has challenged her readers' views on power, climate, gender, racism, religious fundamentalism and much, much more.
Atwood is one of the most significant and influential living authors, particularly within the science fiction genre.

With biting satire and colorful imagination, she has written about equality, the climate crisis and democracy in novels that have also become films, series and pop culture phenomena.

This year, Atwood is the recipient of the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Literature Prize. The prize has previously been awarded to major international writers such as Isabel Allende, Salman Rushdie and Haruki Murakami.
