The Handmaid's Tale Series is a dystopian novel series by Margaret Atwood, consisting of The Handmaid's Tale (1985) and its sequel, The Testaments (2019). Set in the totalitarian Republic of Gilead, The Handmaid’s Tale follows Offred, a Handmaid forced into reproductive servitude under a patriarchal regime.

With The Testaments, Margaret Atwood opens up the innermost workings of Gilead, as each woman is forced to come to terms with who she is, and how far she will go for what she believes.

The Handmaid’s Tale is a novel of such power that the reader will be unable to forget its images and its forecast. Set in the near future, it describes life in what was once the United States and is now called the Republic of Gilead, a monotheocracy that has reacted to social unrest and a sharply declining birthrate by reverting to, and going beyond, the repressive intolerance of the original Puritans. The regime takes the Book of Genesis absolutely at its word, with bizarre consequences for the women and men in its population.
