"When we think of the past it's the beautiful things we pick out. We want to believe it was all like that."

Notes

"The Handmaid's Tale" is a dystopian novel by Margaret Atwood, set in the near future where the United States has been replaced by the totalitarian society of Gilead. The story follows Offred, a handmaid whose sole purpose is to bear children for the ruling class. Women's rights have been stripped away, and they are categorized based on their societal roles. Atwood's chilling narrative explores themes of oppression, power, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of extreme adversity. "The Handmaid's Tale" serves as a haunting warning about the dangers of extremism and the fragility of freedom.
