The Handmaid's Tale, a sequel

Post by gregs317 »

Hi, have you all heard the news? Margaret Atwood recently announced that she is publishing a sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, set to be released in September 2019! I think it's real exciting to finally learn what happened to the title character 'Offred'.

I know it seems like a long time to wait, but I figure it'll give everyone plenty of time to reread the original novel.
