The Handmaid's Tale

Combined with the American TV series and the current social situation, it makes people feel even more horrified. I hope this is not a prophecy, I hope this is just a negative teaching material of history...

"Any suppressed voice will not be content to be silent. They will loudly speak out for their existence in a way that is more silent than loud." In "The Handmaid's Tale", Margaret Atwood greatly showed that the protagonist is in that unfree society, but she yearns for freedom all the time. The flowers, plants and trees are full of vitality under the scorching sun. Although that world was Margaret's imagination, it felt so realistic that it was hard to imagine that it was a book written in the 1980s. Good books are worth reading deeply.

Having heard its name for a long time, we need to be vigilant against all extreme behaviors.

I feel like Afghan women now

It has a bit of a shadow of "1984", but the story structure is completely different from 1984. The author says that he never writes about the future. Indeed, all the plots in the book are in the past or present tense.

I admire the author's imagination and boldness. At first, I was a little repelled by this novel and didn't want to read it, mainly because it was labeled "feminism". In my mind, if it is labeled with a certain doctrine, the process of reading must be painful. On the one hand, this kind of books are difficult to read, and on the other hand, these kinds of books will point out some unpleasant realities, which makes the whole process unpleasant.

It's really scary. It's already being practiced now and has always existed. It may not be cut off in the past, present and future, unless mankind perishes.

What impressed me most was the description of desire.

I especially like the protagonist's rebellious spirit, she still doesn't give up in such difficult circumstances. However, I really hate those archbishops in power, they are so cruel. This book made me deeply aware of the importance of freedom and rights.

It feels like fear and terribleness

A book well worth reading. A kind of thinking that looks into something deeper and structured, and finds something from the complicated system... It is not just the so-called simple thinking about gender. The last chapter also anticipated, or predicted something. I saw the glimmer of stars twinkling.

Because of the translation, a large block of words gave me a headache, but luckily I overcame it. The whole story made me feel depressed, dead and missing.

I used to feel that this kind of unrealistic book was incomprehensible and uninteresting. I can't explain why, but I opened this famous book and felt ashamed while listening to it. Human history is even more magical than this. [Cover face]

Both the book and the film and television series have their own characteristics, and the descriptions in the book are also very specific. However, because it is a first-person perspective, you cannot see the lives of other handmaids. The series has richer branches and a more substantial plot. Probably combined with content from the sequel. In any case, this is a refreshing work, an imagination of a utopian society. I like to see this kind of imaginative work.

Just reading the preface gave me goosebumps all over the place, and I loved it to the point of trembling (I bought the physical book and read it before tying it up) Finished reading the physical book Very nice! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

I have watched a few episodes of the American TV series and I thought it was quite good at first. The novel version adds a lot of details and is worth reading.

The writing is very good, but it makes me feel sick to my stomach when I read it.

I hope that the protagonist in this article and all other women can finally step into the light.

One plus one plus one plus one does not equal four. Each one is unique and they cannot be added together. They cannot be exchanged with each other, or one can be exchanged for another. Cannot replace each other.

What a chilling story...

Very scary content

Purpose over content

Super pretty and awesome

Good, good, good

Great, a step backwards for society.

Worth reading.
