Writer, poet, feminist, environmental activist and all-round literary icon Margaret Atwood is to deliver this year's CBC Massey Lectures. Watch this space for more information.
Ever since a friend of mine pushed a slightly tattered copy of The Edible Woman into my hand to read on a long train journey, I have been a huge fan of hers, and always include her on my 'fantasy dinner party' list (alongside erstwhile regular Sir David Attenborough). I've never heard her lecture, though. If you haven't yet read this sublimely written and hilarious novel, beg, borrow or steal a copy now. You'll thank me, I promise. It's worth a jail term.
