General Note 2020 International Book of the Year at the Australian Book Industry Awards (ABIA).
Abstract/Summary When the van door slammed on Offred's future at the end of The handmaid's tale, readers had no way of telling what lay ahead. With The testaments, the wait is over. Margaret Atwood's sequel picks up the story more than 15 years after Offred stepped into the unknown, with the explosive testaments of three female narrators from Gilead. Our time together is about to begin, my reader. Possibly you will view these pages of mine as a fragile treasure box, to be opened with the utmost care. Possibly you will tear them apart, or burn them: that often happens with words'. You hold in your hands a dangerous weapon loaded with the secrets of three women from Gilead. They are risking their lives for you. For all of us. Before you enter their world, you might. want to arm yourself with these thoughts. Knowledge is power and history does not repeat itself, but it rhymes.
