Elsa: “I found this book at a thrift store. The Handmaid’s Tale made me think it would be more sci-fi. This story is about a group of women who thought one of them was dead but it turns out she is alive. Atwood spends a lot of time describing details about the women’s personalities and lives. I’ve been reading more feminist sci-fi lately, like Octavia Butler. I think it’s topical and good to read about the dystopian future of America. A lot has to change and people have to commit to upholding a vision of equality. Things are so bad for so many people. Reading about it helps me to image that things could be different.” @els_a_ #TheRobberBride #MargaretAtwood / @theubc for #subwaybookreview #newyork 🗽 (at Hoyt–Schermerhorn Streets)

My favorite author is Margaret Atwood, perhaps it is that her writing is beautiful, perhaps that her stories resonate with me now and which I can tell will resonate with me more as I age. But for sure it is that she has a vision for what could happen and what is happening in the world, some amazing things, and other terrible things. She's definitely an incredible writer. #sammyreadsjanuary17 #margaretatwood #stonemattress #thehandmaidstale #aliasgrace #maddaddam #therobberbride #theheartgoeslast #favoriteauthor
