THE TESTAMENTS MARGARET ATWOOD

★★★★★

ARGARET ATWOOD’S new novel doesn’t disappoint. More than 30 years after she released the prophetic , Atwood returns with a follow-up set 15 years after June’s experience in Gilead, and is narrated by three characters: Aunt – and were both raised without any knowledge of their origin or of each other. The sequel to the popular story is everything we wanted it to be. It’s a gripping, harrowing tale that gives us a deeper insight into Aunt Lydia before her life in Gilead, as well as the consiquences of events from the original novel. Margaret is a phenomenal writer and delivers some of her best work with this sequel.
