About this product

Product Information

'Compulsively readable' Daily Telegraph ** THE SUNDAY TIMES NO. 1 BESTSELLER ** Discover the dystopian novel that started a phenomenon before you read the Booker Prize-winning sequel The Testaments. NOW AN AWARD-WINNING TV SERIES STARRING ELISABETH MOSS Offred is a Handmaid in The Republic of Gilead, a religious totalitarian state in what was formerly known as the United States. She is placed in the household of The Commander, Fred Waterford - her assigned name, Offred, means 'of Fred'. She has only one function- to breed. If Offred refuses to enter into sexual servitude to repopulate a devastated world, she will be hanged. Yet even a repressive state cannot eradicate hope and desire. As she recalls her pre-revolution life in flashbacks, Offred must navigate through the terrifying landscape of torture and persecution in the present day, and between two men upon which her future hangs. Masterfully conceived and executed, this haunting vision of the future places Margaret Atwood at the forefront of dystopian fiction. 'A fantastic, chilling story. And so powerfully feminist' Bernadine Evaristo, author of GIRL, WOMAN, OTHER 'This novel seems ever more vital in the present day' Observer READ THE TESTAMENTS, THE BOOKER PRIZE-WINNING SEQUEL TO THE HANDMAID'S TALE, TODAY

    Very good delivery time. Well protected by packaging, but I wouldn’t describe the book as in very good condition. It has some sort of damaged caused by fluid in the first part of the book, and seems “old”. The pages are all very readable though. I’d just call the condition as acceptable to good. Having said that, I’m happy with my purchase

    Engrossing author

    This book is wonderfully written. When reading it, you are transported into the scene. It is a thought provoking science fiction story for people who don't like mainstream science fiction. The Handmaid's Tale will make you marvel. Its projections will haunt you.

  • Great series, great book

    I have watched the series on SBS and am loving the book, the only problem I have with it is the size of the font which is very small.
