This book is such a classic, and I'm a fan of Atwoods, yet this was my first reading of a Handmaid's Tale I knew the story (mostly), and I thought that I had read it. I picked it up at the end of last summer from a "free" box outside a house in my neighbourhood. I really like that informal system in Toronto. I chose that book to bring with me, not because it was a classic that I meant to read ten years ago, but because it was a small book that I happened to own and fit nicely in my very limited luggage. ha! Atwood is the queen of futuristic distopian societies. Read it!
