El 18 de noviembre de 1939 nacía Margaret Atwood, Premio Principe de Asturias de las Letras (2008).
Es cierto que es una autora que aún tengo pendiente, pero para celebrar su cumpleaños os dejo uno de sus poemas:
Habitation
Marriage is not
a house or even a tent
it is before that, and colder:
the edge of the forest, the edge
of the desert
the unpainted stairs
at the back where we squat
outside, eating popcorn
the edge of the receding glacier
where painfully and with wonder
at having survived even
this far
we are learning to make fire
