Her second dystopian tale, the MaddAddam trilogy, imagined another future where humanity doomed itself through biological furor. And the Canadian legend’s skills of prescience extend well beyond her most iconic novel. When the system is set up in this way, one can’t be surprised when it operates as planned. Atwood’s seeming gift of divination is remarkable, although that may have more to do with the disheartening predictability of life under patriarchal rule, something she writes about with wry awareness. Republicans’ utter decimation of reproductive freedoms across the country cannot help but evoke images of Gilead, red smocks, and Aunt Lydias. ![]() Margaret Atwood’s dystopian drama about a fascistic takeover of America that results in the total stripping away of women’s autonomy slowly went from being a cautionary tale to an instructional guide for right-wing abusers. It’s painfully easy to wake up every day, look at the current crumbling political landscape, and compare it to The Handmaid’s Tale. ![]() 6/12/2023 0 Comments R.D.
