Burning Questions
In Burning Questions Atwood aims her constant curiosity and impish humour at our world and reports back to us on what she finds. In it she seeks answers to Burning Questions such as: Why do people everywhere, in all cultures, tell stories? How can we live on our planet? What do zombies have to do with authoritarianism?

If we want to know how we struggle today with understanding or facing up to death, then graveyards provide a starting point.

From Neolithic mounds to internet memorials via medieval c...
