It is overall unconvincing, unbased, not believiable and not in the least way deep or emotional.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

I read the handmaid's tale and i thought it was a highly ironic perspective on women's lib movements and the state of apathy. I related to it, although the main character, Offred, disgusted me with her utter inaction and inability to cope. I felt it was a plausible scenario, the way Offred became uncertain and unreacting. I enjoy Atwood, I've also read Onyx and Crake and found it intruiging. Her concepts are not particularly new or radical, but she has an interesting persepective and a skilled use of wordplay and irony.

i hated, hated a handmaid's tale. it made me want to cry. and throw sharp things at the book. or myself. margaret atwood's writing style is so very dry it's a wonder it hasn't shrunken up and died by now.

I'd have to disagree with everyone, because I don't know what anyone's talking about.
