Description - Old Babes in the Wood by Margaret Atwood
A highly personal new collection of stories by the bestselling, twice Booker-winning cultural icon
The new collection from the legendary Atwood is led by the story of a married couple as they travel the road together, the moments big and small that make up a long life of love -- and what comes after
My heart is broken, Nell thinks. But in our family we don't say, 'My heart is broken.' We say, 'Are there any cookies?'
In this dazzling collection of stories we meet beloved cats, George Orwell, a daughter whose mother may or may not be a witch, a cabal of elderly female academics, and an alien tasked with retelling human fairy tales. And we meet and re-meet Nell and Tig, a long-married couple, and see the moments big and small that make up a life of love - and what comes after.
