The Testaments

In her avidly awaited sequel, Margaret Atwood returns to Gilead, 15 years after the Handmaid called Offred recorded her indelible experiences.

Readers will again enter a dystopia of eerie orderliness as women under ruthless surveillance, their social status indicated by cumbersome, color-coded uniforms, are forced into dehumanizing rituals of sex and punishment.

Reviews:

“Though it does deal with old age, memories of youth, late-life fame and faded glories, Stone Mattress is charged with a delightful cheekiness, as well as a full awareness of the subjectivity of notions of justice and value. — The Independent

“Unpredictably chilling and hilarious…MaddAddam holds a shrewd mirror to our possible future.” —Bookseller
