The Handmaid’s Tale

I’ve started this book, The Handmaid’s Tale and I’m about a quarter of the way through. I must say, it’s far exceeding my expectations..

It’s in the future, the main character is a handmaid and she lives in the commanders house.

Practically everything is illegal. Reading, talking without permission, looking around

There seems to be planetary reproductive problems, and once a month, after a visit to the doctor, she has very non sexy sex with the commander to try to make a baby..

As a handmaiden, she always wears a red dress. Other women with different titles, wear different color dresses. And that signifies their job.and place in society.

Its very bizarre, and it’s written very well.

happy hump day!
