What is it?
The story comes from the homonymous novel by the Canadian writer Margaret Atwood (Booker Prize and Prince of Asturias Award) , and refers us to a dystopian society, with serious problems of fertility due to pollution. In an absolutely polarized society , being a member of the female sex and not being part of the elite, has as a consequence (in the best of cases) a life deprived of freedom. That "best case" is for the fertile woman.
