NOW A SMASH-HIT CHANNEL 4 TV SERIES WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM MARGARET
ATWOOD 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. Brilliantly conceived and executed, this powerful vision of
the future gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's irony, wit and astute
perception.
