It’s an excellent story but I think the theme transcends what we see in the tv program and it just becomes a case of “What’s the most disgusting/humiliating thing that could happen to a women, let’s show that week after week..

The book ends at the end of season one, (I hadn't known that and I thought the further seasons would be "more" of the book.) fyi in case you read the whole thing and you're like "I already knew that!"

I think that’s part of the reason I decided not to watch season two as the plot line wouldn’t be true to the original and it worried me it would just become some sort of torture porn.

I agree with you though, I would really like to see Offred reunited with her husband and daughter and everyone to realise how cruel they had been and ensure such a regime would never happen again. I’m an enteral optimist

I’ve got two daughters and I’m wondering when the best time to give them the book is ��
