Hard to imagine a world in which the religious right have taken away female autonomy, right? < /sarcasm>

Maybe I'm a little biased because of when I read it (few months into The Pandemic), but I loved this book. I wish there was more detail to Offred's story because I feel like it was incomplete. I guess that's part of what makes it work though.
