It’s been a pleasure reading your work; I’m absolutely fascinated by the world you have built in “The Handmaid’s Tale”. It’s so interesting to see the parallels between the reality you have constructed and our world today; I think your work plays a valuable role in society today and is a good starting point for discussion, especially with the book’s TV adaption. Is there anything you would have done differently had you written the book in the current year? I am interested to hear how current events might shape your ideas.
Best,
Kate
