A scary post-something earth and a flashback into how it got there. This one will appeal to lots of sci fi readers as well as Atwood's regular fans. She does a great job exploiting our fears of the future.

I had to read this for class so I didn't go into it with any expectations other than it is one of my Professor's favorite books. The beginning of it was very confusing for me and I couldn't get into it, then about halfway through I could not put the book down. The narrative structure of this book is just so unique which I hated at first but loved by the end. The switching between memories and present situations became so cool when the memories started to finally explain the present. I can't wait to go get the next two books in the series!
