We learned more about the world since the last part of the book. Offred is secretly meeting with the commander now and may try to use that to escape. This book reminds me of V for Vendetta. They are both dystopias and have similar methods of control in them. One parallel I see to real life is how they make people accept their situation. It is similar to how people can be convinced of things that seem unreasonable in both real life and in the book.

The book takes place in a place where the government has strict regulation on everything that happens. It told from the perspective of Offred and showed her life before and after the government took control. This is the first dystopian novel I've read and it is interesting to read about this kind of world. This book takes place in America and probably somewhere in the near past.
