Excellent- More about The Handmaid's Tale
The Handmaid's Tale is a dystopian novel by Margaret Atwood that follows the story of Offred, a Handmaid in The Republic of Gilead, who is forced into sexual servitude to repopulate a devastated world. Despite the repressive state, Offred must navigate through the terrifying landscape of torture and persecution and between two men who hold her future in their hands. The novel is a powerful feminist statement that is as relevant today as it was when it was written.
** THE SUNDAY TIMES NO. 1 BESTSELLER **Discover the dystopian novel that started a phenomenon before you read the Booker Prize-winning sequel The Testaments. NOW AN AWARD-WINNING TV SERIES STARRING ELISABETH MOSSOffred is a Handmaid in The Republic of Gilead, a religious totalitarian state in what was formerly known as the United States.
She is placed in the household of The Commander, Fred Waterford - her assigned name, Offred, means 'of Fred'. She has only one function: to breed. If Offred refuses to enter into sexual servitude to repopulate a devastated world, she will be hanged.
Yet even a repressive state cannot eradicate hope and desire. As she recalls her pre-revolution life in flashbacks, Offred must navigate through the terrifying landscape of torture and persecution in the present day, and between two men upon which her future hangs. Masterfully conceived and executed, this haunting vision of the future places Margaret Atwood at the forefront of dystopian fiction.
