That “Old Babe” Margaret Atwood:

At 83, Margaret Atwood has seen more than her fair share of good fortune and tragedy to know a thing or two about the subject. In her first collection of short stories since 2014, Old Babes in the Wood fully embraces the complicated discussion of old age. Her partner of 46 years, novelist Graeme Gibson, died in 2019, making these stories some of her most personal and reflective.

Banned or Band-Aid?

The debate rages on about banned books in Florida schools. In a heated news conference, Florida Gov.

The matter continues to be the hottest of topics.

Picoult Part of a Dynamic Duo:
