Margaret Atwood is an astounding author and activist‚ who mainly writes dystopian-themed novels. Streaming websites like Netflix and Hulu have helped Atwood gain much more attention by turning some of her books into TV Series. She’s the beholder of one of my favorite quotes‚ “Men are afraid that women will laugh at them.
