About this product

Product Information

Margaret Atwood's feminist 1984 is an excellent A-level text. As one of the few women left with functioning ovaries Offred has only one role in the Republic of Gilead: to breed. If she deviates she will be hanged at the wall like all dissenters. But Offred still remembers how life used to be and determines to find a way out.

  • Well paced and crafted novel. Margaret Atwood at her best.

    Ripping good yarn from a brilliant writer. The book differs quite significantly from the acclaimed US hit series and packs some surprising and sometimes disturbing literary punches. A thumping good read.

  • You have to read it!

    There are more impressive bindings available, but this one is sturdy and tidily printed. The point is that the narrative is so engrossing that you don't notice what you are holding. It is beautifully and unpretentiously written, so that you feel you are inhabiting the I-character and fearing for yourself. At the same time you keep asking, "How could this come about?", then looking at how the world around you has changed this century and thinking, "Yes, it could, that is how it could have started." Rivetting!
