> We are incredibly thrilled to announce Margaret Atwood's only Bay Area
> appearance on Monday, October 12 at 7:30pm at the Fox Theatre in Redwood City.
> Tckets will go fast - pick up yours HERE today!
> Don't miss an evening with one of the world's greatest writers, author of more
> than forty books of fiction, including The Handmaid's Tale, Cat's Eye, Alias
> Grace, The Blind Assassin, Oryx and Crake, The Year of the Flood, and her most
> recent, MaddAddam.Â
> Margaret Atwood returns to her roots of dystopia in her new novel The Heart
> Goes Last. Atwood remains at the forefront of observing contemporary political
> and cultural trends, and extrapolating them in order to create a remarkable
> work of literature. She creates flawed yet relatable characters who are put
> into extreme situations in which their humanity is pushed to the limits. She
> did this masterfully in her classic 1985 novel The Handmaid's Tale. In her new
> work, she takes the current issues of economic insecurity and corporate greed
> in order to tell a brilliantly funny, yet disturbing tale of a couple who is
> pushed to the brink. Â
> In a future, not that far from our current time, an economic collapse has
> forced Stan and Charmaine to live in their car. Their only escape is to sign up
> for the Positron Project. In exchange for food, shelter, and security from the
> outside world, they must serve every other month in a private prison. Not only
> their marriage, but their moral being, will be tested. How much is freedom
> worth for stability?
> Adored by fans and praised by scholars, an evening with Atwood is an evening
> you won't want to miss. Â
> See you at the event of the season,
> Michael and Nicole (Margaret Atwood fangirls #1 and #2)
