توضیحات
In a dystopian future where society has been restructured around oppressive theocratic rule, Offred navigates the complexities of her restricted existence as a Handmaid. In the Republic of Gilead, women have been stripped of their identities and autonomy, reduced to their reproductive capabilities. Offred's life is defined by her servitude to the Commander and his wife, and every day is a battle between submission and the desire for freedom.
As she reflects on her past, glimpses of her former life rise to the surface, revealing a world filled with love, family, and choice—concepts that now seem like distant memories. Her mind drifts to the time before Gilead, when she had a name, a career, and hope for the future. Yet, her present is a suffocating prison cloaked in rigid rules, where even the slightest act of rebellion could lead to dire consequences.
Offred's relationship with the Commander complicates her ordeal, as she finds herself drawn into a secret world of forbidden desires. Amidst the bleakness, fleeting moments of connection offer her glimpses of the humanity she longs for, but the constant threat of surveillance looms large. With each interaction, she wrestles with her resolve, torn between survival and the yearning to reclaim her autonomy.
Amidst the harsh realities of Gilead, Offred’s story unfolds as a powerful reflection on the resilience of the human spirit. As she grapples with loss and the struggle for freedom, her journey resonates far beyond the confines of her bleak surroundings, inviting readers to ponder the enduring significance of identity, choice, and the fight against oppression.

نقدها
A book where the hype matches the story. There is a lot going on and some aspects Atwood could have expanded on (We are not told about the rest of the world for instance).
