7:00 - 8:00
In celebration of Women's History Month, we will discuss The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood.
"The story is iconic: In the Republic of Gilead, a Handmaid named Offred lives in the home of the Commander, to the purpose that she become pregnant with his child. Stripped of her most basic freedoms, (work, property, her own name), Offred remembers a different time, not so long ago, when she was valuable for more than her viable ovaries, when she was mother to a daughter she could keep, and when she and her husband lived and loved as equals. Darkly prescient, scathingly sarcastic, and eminently frightening."
New members are always welcome. Light refreshments and snacks provided.
