Anaya, September 1, 2006

Like "Handmaid's Tale," Margaret Atwood takes her readers on another futuristic and dystopian tale of humanity's downfalls through its own faults. In this delightful yet morbid story, science and ethics clash, love and jealousy combust and all is lost when the world becomes embroiled in what Atwood considers a horrific and universal apocalpyse. In one thread of temporality, the novel hints how humanity causes its own downfall while experimenting with genetic engineering, while in another time and place, the main character desperately searches for a glimmer of hope in dark times - a way out of the apocalpyse nightare and towards a better world and future. A must read for any sci-fi lover, Atwood fan or a college syllabus.
