The following study examines the survival of the heroine in Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. The story takes place in the late 20th century where now A New Christian Right or New Puritans have taken over the power of what used to be the United States. The new regime, which is named after the biblical land of Gilead, returns to the Old Testament in a reaction against abortion, sterilization and what they consider to be dangerous kinds of freedom of the modern welfare state. The new government controls the society by hierarchy. The heroine, named Offred by the new regime, is placed as a Handmaid and sent to a commander's house to bare a child for his sterile wife (since no sterile man is thought to exist in regime of Gilead). Under the severe conditions, Offred lives in fear and is force to be passive and submissive to survive under the strict rules. By telling the story and reconstruction her memories, she gradually gains her power and emotions. Through the survival in Gilead she regains her identity and overcomes her victim complex. |
