About this product

Product Information

'Compulsively readable' Daily Telegraph 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. . . . .

  • The Handmaid's Tale

    Written in the 1980's The Handmaid's Tale depicts a future ruled by religious extremists - men who mostly have a low sperm count and their wives who are barren. They require the Handmaids to bear them children. Offred the lady who is narrating the book reminds us of her past life when she was married with a child. Her child has been taken and her husband presumed dead. She is now the handmaid of the Commander (Fred). Really beautiful writing by Margaret Attwood. Creepy but brilliant.
