Madam Russell reads an extract from Margaret Atwood's 'The Handmaid's Tale'.

Set in a near future America, 'The Handmaid's Tale' presents a society ruled by a patriarchal religious group. With fewer children being born than even, women are assigned as 'Handmaids' to conceive children for elite families. This classic dystopian novel explores a situation in which women have lost every right gained over the past 200 years.
