Margaret Atwood's collection of essays explores why people tell stories, how much of themselves they can give away, how to live on our planet, and whether it is true and fair. She aims her intellect and humor at our world and reports back on what she finds, covering a roller-coaster period that brought an end to the end of history, a financial crash, the rise of Trump, and a pandemic.

Essays and Occasional Pieces 2004-2021
From cultural icon Margaret Atwood comes a brilliant collection of essays -- funny, erudite, endlessly curious, uncannily prescient -- which seek answers to Burning Questions such as: Why do people everywhere, in all cultures, tell stories? How much of yourself can you give away without evaporating? How can we live on our planet? Is it true? And is it fair? What do zombies have to do with authoritarianism? In over fifty pieces Atwood aims her prodigious intellect and impish humour at our world, and reports back to us on what she finds.
The roller-coaster period covered in the collection brought an end to the end of history, a financial crash, the rise of Trump and a pandemic. From debt to tech, the climate crisis to freedom; from when to dispense advice to the young (answer: only when asked) to how to define granola, we have no better questioner of the many and varied mysteries of our human universe.
