## Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An instant classic and eerily prescient cultural phenomenon, from “the patron saint of feminist dystopian fiction” ( The New York Times ) • The sixth and final season of the award-winning Hulu series starring Elisabeth Moss is now streaming Look for The Testaments , the bestselling, award-winning sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale In Margaret Atwood’s dystopian future, environmental disasters and declining birthrates have led to a Second American Civil War. The result is the rise of the Republic of Gilead, a totalitarian regime that enforces rigid social roles and enslaves the few remaining fertile women. Offred is one of these, a Handmaid bound to produce children for one of Gilead’s commanders. Deprived of her husband, her child, her freedom, and even her own name, Offred clings to her memories and her will to survive. At once a scathing satire, an ominous warning, and a tour de force of narrative suspense, The Handmaid’s Tale is a modern classic. Includes an introduction by Margaret Atwood

Review: 30年前の作品とは思えない。 - 30年前の作品とは思えないほど現代にも通じるものがあります。それほど女性の扱われ方はあまり変わっていないということなのでしょうか。 作者によると書かれている事例は作者の創作ではなく、歴史上行われてきた事を書いているそうです。確かにどこかで聞いたことのあるような事ばかり。そのせいかディストピア小説にありがちな陰鬱な読後感はありませんでした。 英語はとても読みやすく、ほとんど一気読み。 続編が出ているので気になります。
Review: This is a dystopian novel. - The world written here is a dystopian. If the Russian and Ukrayina war, for example, had not occurred, the novel would not have been created nor called as a "dystopia". I believe the difference between utipian and dystopian world is a paper-thin margin. Most people found that this is the dystopian as an aftermath of the above war. So they asked the writing of an aftermath of the author, Margaret Atwood. Those two novels seem for me to form a set. I prefer Kazuo Ishiguro's "Never Let Me Alone" to those two, though.
