The Handmaid's Tale, Chapters 1 & 2, read by Elisabeth Moss by Penguin Books UK published on 2021-06-30T15:10:57Z Read by Elisabeth Moss, star of the hit Channel 4 TV series. 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 evocation of 21st-century America gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's devastating irony, wit and astute perception. Genre Audiobooks
