Q&A with Margaret Atwood discussion

If you have the option, you should choose the audio version of this book (available for mp3 players from amazon's audible.com). The hymns (lyrics by Margaret Atwood), integral to the story, are beautifully sung in the audio book version: " Hymns of the God's Gardeners; Lyrics from Year of the Flood" by Orville Stoeber;Margaret Atwood. Sung beautifully to guitar accompaniment. Alternatively, the album can be downloaded in mp3 format from amazon.com ($8.99).

I agree, too. I listened to the audio and enjoyed the hymns. I bought the CD, too. It's a lovely addition to the book and adds quite a bit of ambience and mood, I think.

Oh, I didn't realise that the audio version would be this nice! I've got both, book and audio and I've just started reading... I might just swap mediums!

I might get this from Audible.com, for the hyms alone. I already have the hard copy, though.

Jason, I plan on buying a hard copy of the book to keep with the CD of hymns (for future re-reading purposes).

I just checked, and Audible.com does have it. So I will indeed get it! :)
