Reviews" One of the most anticipated sequels of the modern age . . . full of revealing backstories." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post "A chilling invitation no Atwood fan can resist . . . The Testaments reminds us of the power of truth in the face of evil. " -- People " A fast, immersive narrative that's as propulsive as it is melodramatic." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times " The women of Gilead are more fascinating than ever. " --NPR " There may be no novelist better suited to tapping the current era's anxieties than Margaret Atwood. " -- Entertainment Weekly " A rare treat . . . a corker of a plot, culminating in a breathless flight to freedom." --Laura Miller, Slate.com
