The Testaments: The Sequel to The Handmaid's Tale (Random House Large Print)
Description
NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • WINNER OF THE BOOKER PRIZE • The Testaments is a
modern masterpiece, a powerful novel that can be read on its own or as a
companion to Margaret Atwood’s classic, The Handmaid’s Tale. More than fifteen
years after the events of The Handmaid’s Tale, the theocratic regime of the
Republic of Gilead maintains its grip on power, but there are signs it is
beginning to rot from within. At this crucial moment, the lives of three
radically different women converge, with potentially explosive results. Two
have grown up as part of the first generation to come of age in the new order.
The testimonies of these two young women are joined by a third: Aunt Lydia.
Her complex past and uncertain future unfold in surprising and pivotal ways.
With The Testaments, Margaret Atwood opens up the innermost workings of
Gilead, as each woman is forced to come to terms with who she is, and how far
she will go for what she believes. Read more
