Margaret Atwood is set to return to bookstores with a new work. In 2022, the Canadian novelist will release her latest work Burning Questions, a collection of essays in which the Handmaid's Tale writer tackles some of the most pertinent issues of the day.

Publisher Penguin Random House describes Burning Questions as a "brilliant selection of essays - funny, erudite, endlessly curious, uncannily prescient." As the book's title suggests, the essays see Margaret Atwood explore answers to certain pressing questions, such as why people everywhere, in all cultures, tell stories, and what zombies have to do with authoritarianism.
