About this Event
What do artists see that the rest of us miss?
Canadian writer Margaret Atwood's five decades of literary exploration have shown her to be an incisive observer of people and politics. She sits down with Steve Paikin (The Agenda) to talk democracy, authoritarianism and how fact can indeed be stranger than fiction.
As a strong voice on several of the pillars of democratic life, the conversation will touch on core values such as freedom of speech, citizenship, where democracy can backslide, and how to work for a better democratic future.
Join TVO and world-renowned author, poet and critical essayist Margaret Atwood for a conversation about democracy and the artist's ability to see what others miss. Following the segment, will be a live Q & A with Margaret Atwood and the audience.
