Handmaiden

Canada's postal service on Nov. 25 celebrated the 60-year writing career of "The Handmaid's Tale" author Margaret Atwood by featuring her image on a stamp.

Margaret Atwood released the much-anticipated sequel to her award-winning 1985 novel "The Handmaid's Tale" on Sept. 10 with "The Testaments" set to become a similar smash.

Greece's Central Archaeological Council (KAS) has given its approval for a scene from a new adaptation of John Le Carre's spy thriller "The Little Drummer Girl" to be shot at the iconic Temple of Poseidon at Sounio.

Television's glittering Emmys placed politics front and center on Sept. 17, lavishing "The Handmaid's Tale" with awards for its bleak portrait of an authoritarian America.

The glitzy ceremony in downtown Los Angeles was widely expected to have a strongly political flavor, and host Stephen Colbert set the tone in his opening monologue.

The Booker Prize-winning Canadian author Margaret Atwood has become the first of 100 authors to submit work to a project called the ?Future Library,? BBC News has reported. 

The project will see one work of fiction from a different writer being added to a collection each year, until they are all published in 2114.
