Hag-Seed is a re-visiting of Shakespeare’s play of magic and illusion, The Tempest, and will be the fourth novel in the Hogarth Shakespeare series.
The Tempest is set on a remote island full of strange noises and creatures. Here, Prospero, the deposed Duke of Milan, plots to restore the fortunes of his daughter Miranda by using magic and illusion -- starting with a storm that will bring Antonio, his treacherous brother, to him. All Prospero, the great sorcerer, needs to do is watch as the action he has set in train unfolds.
In Margaret Atwood’s ‘novel take’ on Shakespeare’s original, theatre director Felix has been unceremoniously ousted from his role as Artistic Director of the Makeshiweg Festival. When he lands a job teaching theatre in a prison, the possibility of revenge presents itself – and his cast find themselves taking part in an interactive and illusion-ridden version of The Tempest that will change their lives forever.
There’s a lot of Shakespearean swearing in this new Tempest adventure…but also a mischief, curiosity and vigour that’s entirely Atwood and is sure to delight her fans.
Margaret Atwood was born in 1939 in Ottawa and grew up in northern Ontario, Quebec, and Toronto. She received her undergraduate degree from Victoria College at the University of Toronto and her master's degree from Radcliffe College.
Throughout her writing career, Margaret Atwood has received numerous awards and honourary degrees. She is the author of more than thirty-five volumes of poetry, children’s literature, fiction, and non-fiction and is perhaps best known for her novels, which include The Edible Woman (1970), The Handmaid's Tale (1983), The Robber Bride (1994), Alias Grace (1996), and The Blind Assassin, which won the prestigious Booker Prize in 2000. Atwood's dystopic novel, Oryx and Crake, was published in 2003. The Tent (mini-fictions) and Moral Disorder (short stories) both appeared in 2006. Her most recent volume of poetry, The Door, was published in 2007. Her non-fiction book, Payback: Debt and the Shadow Side of Wealth in the Massey series, appeared in 2008, and her most recent novel, The Year of the Flood, in the autumn of 2009. Ms. Atwood's work has been published in more than forty languages, including Farsi, Japanese, Turkish, Finnish, Korean, Icelandic and Estonian. In 2004 she co-invented the Long Pen TM.
Margaret Atwood currently lives in Toronto with writer Graeme Gibson.
2019-12 TERRFIC! But it's a pitty that there is no romance relating to Felix at the end.

评分这本节奏好快,惊了
我跟很多人一样,在今年之前不太认识阿特伍德,要不是她1985年创作的《使女的故事》被搬上荧幕,可能未来很长一段时间内都不太知道这个名字。凑巧的是,刚好有机会读了她的新书《女巫的子孙》。 这是一个有趣的改写计划,出版社联系了8位作家用小说的形式重新创作莎士比亚的8部...
评分 评分人类,作为一种感性、自我、又极富局限性的智慧生物,几乎从获得思考能力的那一瞬间起,永远沉迷于某一样事物,人的行为禁锢于自己沉迷于宏大的智慧囚笼之中;而在我们短暂而渺小的一生中,或许沉迷作为一个主题,才能让生活多一些变化吧。 我一直觉得,艺术创作者中,大抵唯...

评分对布克奖得主水平和路数的认知完全来自于写出《占有:一段罗曼史》和《天使与昆虫》的拜厄特,在对作者不熟悉的情况下,对本书的大体预期是建立在经验之上,但是开始读没多久,就觉得期望落空了。不可否认这篇文章故事的搭建和细节的处理毫无破绽,但是过于忠实戏剧编导过程的...
