Margaret Atwood’s new book will not be read by anyone in 100 years. The Canadian writer’s work is part of an art project that will continue until 2114, when the texts are printed and made available to the public.
The Future Library Project has, according to The Guardian, created by Scottish artist Katie Paterson, last summer saw that 1000 trees were planted in the Norwegian North Marka. The trees are cut down in 2114 to become the paper for the books that finally published. Every year until then offered a new writer in to write a text to the collection.
Atwood refuses to tell me what she wrote about.
-Wild horses could not drag it out of me, says she is fond of the magazine.
