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.  > 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.  > See you at the event of the season, > Michael and Nicole (Margaret Atwood fangirls #1 and #2)
