Birthday of catty Canadian novelist, poet and critic Margaret Atwood: Nov. 18, 1939…
“Wanting to meet an author because you like his work is like wanting to meet a duck because you like paté.” ― Margaret Atwood

When I first read Blind Assassin, it’s like discovering how to use words for the first time. I don’t know how else to describe it! If she is a duck then I absolutely love her pate XDDD
A Happy Birthday to her. Reading The Year of the Flood, Oryx and Crake, and the Handmaids Tale got me back into reading as an adult.
Margaret Atwood’s got a little Miranda July/Annie Clark thing going on.. I LOVE IT
Good quote. But I still find myself wanting to meet authors I admire because seeing the vessel that contains the genius...
