I did like how the things that happened seem like things
that really could happen if you didn't keep an eye on social
problems. That kind of violence can actually happen really
easily.
KAREEM:
I wonder whether in writing this book the author thought
that society was getting better or worse in terms of social
differences. Was it supposed to be a celebration of how
good things have gotten or a warning?
Which of the following is a research question that arises most naturally from
this discussion?
A. Is the situation described in the book very different from that of
our society?
B. How easily does violence happen in a society?
OC. Is The Handmaid's Tale meant to be a warning or a celebration?
OD. Are the differences between men's and women's salaries
decreasing?
