The detailed descriptions made the reader feel as if you were in Gilead yourself. Bringing back methods from the past into the modern world showed how different women used to be seen and treated, and also how the concept of childbirth changed. A very good feminist dystopian novel. MAIN TOPIC / MASSAGE Power manipulation of power; power entirely from the top; system takes power from women Sexuality - Gilearden regime is in control of sex and sexuality → they execute gays and lesbians; destroy pornography and sexual clothing; kill abortion doctors; outlaw divorce and second marriage Feminism Moira as a representative; women teach each other about the new regime THE HANDMAID'S TALE CONNECTION TO THE TOPIC "SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY" Gilead is a science experiment; based around a 'natural' way of life; dehumanization of women, due to lack of freedom and strict control; women as `baby ovens'; men as sperm donors; system based around radical Christianity; "A rat is free to go anywhere, as long as it stays inside the maze"; "eyes" act as cameras; lives are routinely and systematic
