The Handmaid's Tale

The Republic of Gilead offers Offred only one function: to breed . If she deviates, she will, like dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiation sickness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire - neither Offred's nor that of the two men on which her future hangs.Brilliantly conceived and executes , this powerful evocation of twenty-first century America gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's devastating irony , wit and astute perception. (Tanıtım Bülteninden)
