Description
The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood is a dystopian novel set in the totalitarian Republic of Gilead, a society that oppresses women and strips them of their rights. The story follows Offred, a Handmaid forced into reproductive servitude to bear children for the ruling elite. Through her perspective, the novel explores themes of power, control, resistance, and the dangers of extreme patriarchal rule. Atwood’s chilling depiction of a near-future world serves as a cautionary tale about the fragility of freedom and the consequences of authoritarianism.
