Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale is a dystopian novel set in Gilead, a totalitarian society that has overthrown the United States government. Faced with environmental disasters and declining birthrates, Gilead institutes a new social order where fertile women, called Handmaids, are forced into sexual servitude to bear children for the ruling class. The story follows Offred, a Handmaid struggling for survival while remembering her past life before the revolution.

A powerful exploration of oppression, feminism, religion, and the loss of identity, the novel critiques totalitarian regimes and explores the dangers of extreme ideologies. Through Offred's experiences, The Handmaid's Tale delivers a chilling and thought-provoking narrative.
