Review of 'Margaret Atwood, "The handmaid\'s tale"' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

3/5. I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. While it's a disturbing read, the story was compelling, relevant and important, even nearly 35 years after it was written. I understand why Atwood left so many of the details vague and enjoyed getting snippets here and there as it unfolded, but I would have liked more detail in the end. I'm interested to see what she does in the sequel, The Testaments.
