The Handmaid's Tale

Really great. I've meant to read this for a long time, but was prompted to finally start it by the release of the Hulu series and the associated press. It's very readable, fascinating, and utterly horrifying, not least because it isn't all that hard to see the seeds of such a future being sown, far more now than in 1985 when it was originally published. (Goodreads says 1998. Goodreads is wrong.)

Everything I can say about it is trite and has been said before. It is a classic and a warning and it is very much worth your time.
