Atwood takes us into a modern Orwellian nightmare… This haunting
novel now seems scarily prophetic. Bleakly compelling and chilling,
but with a redemptive twist.
*Lady*
Four years in the making, this graphic novelisation by Atwood's
fellow Canadian, illustrator Renée Nault, is strikingly
visualised.
*Bookseller*
Whatever one’s level of Gileadean connoisseurship (or ignorance),
this version, superbly adapted and illustrated in ink and
watercolour is an excellent addition to the formats.
