The Handmaid's Tale

En anglais. The republic of Gilead offers only one option to breed. If she deviates, she will, like all dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiations sackness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire   - neither offred's nor that of the two men on whom the future hangs. Brillantly conceived and executed, this powerfull evocation of twenty-first-century America gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's devastating irony, wit and astuce perception.
