Synopsis "Les Testaments (in French)"

La suite de La Servante écarlate. Quinze ans après les événements racontés dans La Servante écarlate, roman dystopique désormais culte, le régime théocratique de la République de Galaad a toujours la mainmise sur le pouvoir, mais certains signes ne trompent pas : il est en train de pourrir de l'intérieur. A ce moment crucial, les vies de trois femmes radicalement différentes convergent, avec des conséquences potentiellement explosives. Avec Les Testaments, Margaret Atwood poursuit l'histoire de Galaad dans un savant mélange de suspense, de vivacité et de virtuosité.
