E06: On Adaptation: Margaret Atwood with Emma Donoghue | Everyday Forum Podcast
1h 22m
Join our Forum audiences for another exciting episode hosted by Beck Lloyd and Khadijah Roberts-Abdullah. Listen as the hosts bond over their mutual affection for author Margaret Atwood and discuss the way hearing the conversation between Atwood and Donoghue has widened their understanding of the intricacies behind adapting creative works, including the vulnerabilities of the writer once their work has been adapted by another artist or new medium.
Drawing from their personal experience, Atwood and Donoghue open up about navigating the journey from written word to screen sensation with The Handmaid's Tale and Room respectively, sparing no detail on the challenges they’ve encountered working in film and television.
Support for The Meighen Forum is generously provided by Kelly & Michael Meighen and the T.R. Meighen Family Foundation.
