Als Tochter von Wissenschaftler:innen verbrachte Atwood den Großteil ihrer Kindheit in der kanadischen Wildnis – der Start in ein Ausnahme-Leben.

Atwood erzählt, wie es weiterging, lässt uns teilhaben an ihren Freundschaften, am Leben mit ihrem Mann Graeme.

Criada por padres de mentalidad científica y espíritu independiente, Margaret Atwood pasó gran parte de su infancia en los bosques remotos del norte de Quebec, lejos de las convenciones sociales. Aquella niñez nómada y sin ataduras marcó el inicio de un camino fuera de lo común, que ella misma narra con lucidez, ironía e ingenio, entrelazando los momentos decisivos de su vida con las obras que han transformado la narrativa contemporánea, como Ojo de gato y El cuento de la criada.
