Has to be the most overrated dystopian novel ever. Nothing in the book has become anywhere close to reality. The Left luvs to being back Atwood anytime a Republican is in the White House.
Sounds like life under Islam.
A stupid, stupid book. Poorly written too.
Could have been a better concept if it had aimed at exposing backward, barbaric Islamic society, but as an attack on Christianity, the author showed herself to be an ignorant polemicist.
The series looks like crap. This review is crap. The “rolling back women’s rights” canard and the typical let’s-sneak-in-a-slam-against-Trump is getting really, really tiresome.
I just canceled HULU. Trash.
“Make Margaret Sanger Dead Again” ......................
It is the Left’s fantasy that, somehow, fundamentalist Christians will seize control and reshape society. Meanwhile, they feign complete ignorance to the dangers posed by Muslim fundamentalists.
Pushing Handmaid’s Tale and 1984 to bolster the Official Reality that we are entering a police state.
It’s not like the government is using the IRS to suppress opposition organization, or is conducting mass surveillance of its citizens.
Stopped reading right there.
In other words, a progressive wet dream.
Why is the insane left telling another right-wing boogieman story?
They have the current realities of molotov cocktail tossing muslim `no go’ sharia law zones overseas and the cartel-caused Chiraq, Motown and El Lay drug and violence ridden urban nightmares across the country, thanks to a quarter-century of their open borders.
Because, like demented Igor cattleprod shocking the Wolfman in `Van Helsing’—it’s what they do.
Can’t wait for the Hollywood treatment of “Alph”.
The thing that makes for good dystopian sci fi is that the work has a resonable shot at predicting the near future. Orwell, the works of Philip K. Dick, Ghost in the Shell, etc. Fertile woman as high value? The last thing a young man wants today is a fertile woman.
One of the things that I found interesting about the Book is that they forgot that women had no value as anything but breeders before Christianity.
Those that don’t read history are bound .......
