I have started The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. This has been sitting around on my reading list for a while and I have a bit of “free reading” time, so I thought it was time to give it a go. Here’s the blurb:
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.
