I disliked The Hand Maid's Tale completely. The author was brilliant with taking extremists views, mostly feminist and biblical views, and creating a truly terrible society, largely run by man. I felt like the women in the society were oppressed, and had absolutely any freedoms. I felt like they should have revolted against this, but no one did. This novel was a 1st person point of view so how much can we actually believe. If society was this bad wouldn't they revolt? The men had much more freedoms, and commanders could do pretty much what they wanted.
