Ms. Atwood is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade, the Franz Kafka International Literary Prize, the PEN Center USA Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Los Angeles Times Innovator’s Award. Together with her late husband Graeme Gibson, Margaret was also awarded the Nature Canada Award for Conservation Advocacy. 

In this episode, Margaret shares her thoughts on religion, history, politics, abortion… and asks me to join her cult.
