This short summary and analysis of The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood includes: * Historical context * Part-by-part summaries * Analysis of the main characters * Themes and symbols * Important quotes * Fascinating trivia * Glossary of terms * Supporting material to enhance your understanding of the original work About Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale: Margaret Atwood's dystopian literary masterpiece tells the story of Offred, a Handmaid living in the near future in what was once the United States. A new theocratic regime called the Republic of Gilead has come to power and changed life as she knew it. Once Offred had a her own name and a loving family--a husband and daughter--both of which were taken from her; now she belongs to the Commander and his hostile wife, and her only value lies in her ability to bear a child for them. She used to read books and learn; now such things are forbidden to all women. Gripping, disturbing, and so relevant today, The Handmaid's Tale is a brilliant novel and a chilling warning about what can happen when extreme ideas are taken to their logical conclusions. The summary and analysis in this book are intended to complement your reading experience and bring you closer to a great work of fiction.
