NOW A SMASH-HIT CHANNEL 4 TV SERIES
WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM MARGARET ATWOOD
The Republic of Gilead offers Offred only one function: to breed. If she deviates, she will, like dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiation sickness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire – neither Offred's nor that of the two men on which her future hangs.
Brilliantly conceived and executed, this powerful vision of the future gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's irony, wit and astute perception.
‘Don’t expect to be gripped by a more potent or involving drama this year.’ Telegraph
'I can’t think of another television event that has hit quite such a nerve, and gone on resounding and resonating, worrying and creeping into your soul and into your dreams quite like The Handmaid’s Tale has … It’s as relevant today as it was when Atwood wrote it, in Berlin, in 1985. And while all this continues to be real, we need The Handmaid’s Tale – to keep reminding, and resonating, and ringing. Dong, dong, dong.’ Guardian

看书前就听说这是个政治恐怖小说,果真,整本书里,几乎没有一个对笑容的描写,一些都是沉抑的,没有情感的。故事围绕着Offred (the Handmaid)的命运,她生活在一个做爱是为了繁殖,一切都由权威控制的社会。 一本很好的反乌托邦的书,由于一切都是虚幻的,所以有不少书评家...

评分文:鱼鲜支 最近读的几本书里,印象最深的是一本《使女的故事》,加拿大作家玛格丽特·阿特伍德创作于1984年的幻想小说。 根据这本小说改编的同名美剧,去年夺得艾美奖五项大奖,今年第二季的豆瓣评分又达到了9.1分。原著小说也随之大热,在出版三十年后登顶美国亚马逊畅销书榜...

评分摘自《博客大巴》 作者:temmi 暑假是读小说的好日子,我惴惴不安的把论文丢到一边,有点惬意的读小说。上午和睡前是读小说的好时光,读着读着就能让我好好的睡上一觉,让我不得不佩服自己的睡眠能力,虽然不需要很长的睡眠时间就能精力充沛,但基本很快就能睡着。能...
Ofred顺从地被扭送上了黑车,不知道这辆车是带着她驶向希望,还是拖向更深的绝望,不过我现在觉得关系不大了,哀莫大于心死,一个心死的人又有何怖呢?
评分现实还是幻想?
评分2018-2020,18年读了前20章,这个周末读完了剩下的26章。
评分发现作者正是双面格蕾丝的作者,所以难怪了,那是我弃掉的书。。。并不很喜欢她的文笔,读着不顺畅。再加上时不时插入大段的闪回,自己也不是很有耐心。如果不是主线内容恐怕就弃书了。女性作为生育工具,过去发生过,现在正在发生,未来仍不可避免。
