Just screw each other and scorn the warnings.

Atwood is a great novelist and quite articulate. It's a pity the interviewer was so bad. He should stick to medicine. He couldn't get a question out. Quite a disappointment.

Atwood is a great novelist and very articulate. But the interviewer should stick to medicine. I was at this event. The interviewer was awful. Just awful. He couldn't get a question out. A great disappointment.
-
her comment on non-romantics tending to not tell stories, only write reports = top notch. the audience figured out pretty quickly that that was a shot to this interviewer. ;)
-
just ask her a freaking question.
-
Could we please get another interviewer.
He is clearly deficient for this task. I'm just
stating the obvious.
-
Fabulous treat. Thank you so much for uploading this interview.

at times I think the nice interviewer does not understand that the his job is to set up the interviewee to speak and be the star, not try to outshine or out-funny them. I have only seen the first 3 mins so far so that might be a premature judgement. Love Margaret Atwood. She is amazing.

The interviewer is a nice guy, unfortunately he's not smart enough to talk with Margaret Atwood.
