by Margaret Atwood. It JUST came out(I had it on pre order since April) MaddAdam is the third book in the dystopian trilogy including Oryx and Crake, and The Year of the Flood . Margaret Atwood is a treasure. Years ago we had a detailed discussion of A Handmaids Tale, also by Atwood. That discussion was one of the most rewarding experiences I have had here on DU.It was on DU1.... long time passing!
