About the Book The Handmaid's Tale
The Handmaid's Tale is set in a patriarchal society where fertility rates have plummeted. Women are stripped of their rights, and a rigid caste system is imposed. Offred, the story's narrator, belongs to the Handmaids, a group of women whose sole purpose is to bear children for the ruling class. Offred recounts her life before Gilead, her indoctrination into this new world, and her ongoing struggle for freedom. Her narrative is interwoven with flashbacks and introspective commentary, revealing the harrowing reality of life under an oppressive regime.
Set in the near-future theocratic Republic of Gilead, the novel explores themes of power, feminism, and societal control through the eyes of its protagonist, Offred.
This Page Is Under Construction
It takes a long time to gather all the data for our new book page format with more useful descriptions, themes, and activity ideas. Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
