ATWOOD IS HOTTER THAN EVER: The hugely acclaimed Handmaid's Tale television series swept the 2017 Emmy Awards, advancing a discourse on women's rights and body politics that is becoming rather disturbingly timely given the current political climate in the U.S. and indeed North America. Sarah Polley's adaptation of Alias Grace, a six-part mini-series, will be launching in late September on CBC, and there is sure to be continued buzz surrounding Atwood well into the new year.
A LIST SALES HISTORY: Atwood's two other works previously reissued as A List titles (Survival and The Circle Game) are two of the imprint's best sellers.
