The Handmaid’s Tale

Reviewed by Margaret Atwood

The cover of “The Handmaid’s Tale” by Margaret Atwood, is as subtle as a touchdown dance in the end zone. That deep red backdrop with the cut-out silhouette of a handmaid’s bonnet? It’s like a quarterback sneak—unexpected and effective. Minimalist, yet it screams, “Watch out!” It’s got a real “I’m-about-to-unleash-some-dystopian-drama” vibe. The bold, capitalized letters are like the defensive line—straightforward and impossible to ignore.

Rating: ★★★★★ Summary: A cover that’s as commanding as a two-minute drill and just as thrilling.
