Edition DescriptionMedia tie-in
Synopsis#1 New York Times bestseller - Includes an introduction by Margaret Atwood. An instant classic and eerily prescient cultural phenomenon, from "the patron saint of feminist dystopian fiction" ( New York Times ). Now an award-winning Hulu series starring Elizabeth Moss. Look for The Testaments , the sequel to The Handmaid's Tale , coming September 2019. In Margaret Atwood's dystopian future, environmental disasters and declining birthrates have led to a Second American Civil War. The result is the rise of the Republic of Gilead, a totalitarian regime that enforces rigid social roles and enslaves the few remaining fertile women. Offred is one of these, a Handmaid bound to produce children for one of Gilead's commanders. Deprived of her husband, her child, her freedom, and even her own name, Offred clings to her memories and her will to survive. At once a scathing satire, an ominous warning, and a tour de force of narrative suspense, The Handmaid's Tale is a modern classic., #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - An instant classic and eerily prescient cultural phenomenon, from "the patron saint of feminist dystopian fiction" ( New York Times ) - The sixth and final season of the award-winning Hulu series starring Elisabeth Moss is now streaming - Includes an introduction by Margaret Atwood In Margaret Atwood's dystopian future, environmental disasters and declining birthrates have led to a Second American Civil War.

Not a great read
The condition of the book was fine and very affordable. It is the content of the book, the actual story that I am not enjoying. I'm reading the book because it is a book club choice, I would not have chosen it myself. I'm finding it a difficult read.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Blah!
I don't know what all the hoopla is about. I found the book ploddingly slow, some flashbacks out of no where that made no sense and very little set up for the story. Perhaps the TV series is better. Glad I didn't pay a lot for it!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
