Offred is a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead. She may leave the home of the Commander and his wife once a day to walk to food markets whose signs are now pictures instead of words because women are no longer allowed to read. She must lie on her back once a month and pray that the Commander makes her pregnant, because in an age of declining births, Offred and the other Handmaids are only valued if their ovaries are viable.
Offred can remember the days before, when she lived and made love with her husband Luke; when she played with and protected her daughter; when she had a job, money of her own, and access to knowledge. But all of that is gone now....
Funny, unexpected, horrifying, and altogether convincing, The Handmaid's Tale is at once scathing satire, dire warning, and tour de force.  aDystopian fiction.  aMan-woman relationships - Fiction.  u000034/000034a6.jpg  aBR-BrIDEAcBR-BrIDEA  aP Year 7 813bATW  aAtwood, Margarethd193910aThe handmaid´s talecMargaret Atwood  aNew YorkbAnchor Booksc2017  cBK  00102ddc4070a12.27b12.27d2023-04-11l0oAP Year 7 813 ATWp00061768AGCr2024-01-23 15:02:33w2024-01-23yBKu  00102ddc4070a12.28b12.28d2023-04-11l0oP Year 7 813 ATWp00061769SSWr2024-01-23 15:02:33w2024-01-23yBK  00102ddc4070a12.28b12.28d2023-04-11l0oP Year 7 813 ATWp00061770SSWr2024-01-23 15:02:33w2024-01-23yBK  c119240d119240
