Margaret Atwood wrote much of “The Handmaid’s Tale” on a rented typewriter in 1984 in West Berlin. She recalls hearing sonic booms from the other side of the Wall. In her new memoir, she addresses what she sees as the erosion of democracy, writing: "The overriding of ordinary civil liberties is one of the signposts on the road to dictatorship." She tells 60 Minutes: “I don't think I would be wrong if I said it's concerning.” “There’s some warning lights flashing for sure,” says Atwood. #margaretatwood #handmaidstale
