The stunning graphic novel adaptation A must-read and collectors item for fans of the patron saint of feminist dystopian fiction ( New York Times ). Look for The Testaments , the sequel to The Handmaids Tale , coming September 2019. In Margaret Atwoods dystopian future, environmental disasters and declining birthrates have led to a Second American Civil War. The result is the rise of the Republic of Gilead, a totalitarian regime that enforces rigid social roles and enslaves the few remaining fertile women. Offred is one of these, a Handmaid bound to produce children for one of Gileads commanders. Deprived of her husband, her child, her freedom, and even her own name, Offred clings to her memories and her will to survive. Provocative, startling, prophetic, The Handmaids Tale has long been a global phenomenon. With this beautiful graphic novel adaptation of Margaret Atwoods modern classic, beautifully realized by artist Renée Nault, the terrifying reality of Gilead has been brought to vivid life like never before.

Provocative, startling, prophetic, and more relevant than ever, The Handmaid's Tale has become a global phenomenon. Now, in this stunning graphic novel edition of Margaret Atwood's modern classic, the terrifying reality of Gilead is brought to vivid life like never before.
"Everything Handmaids wear is red: the colour of blood, which defines us." Offred is a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead, where women are prohibited from holding jobs, reading, and forming friendships. She serves in the household of the Commander and his wife, and under the new social order she has only one purpose: once a month, she must lie on her back and pray that the Commander makes her pregnant, ecause in an age of declining births, Offred and the other Handmaids are valued only if they are fertile. But Offred remembers the years before Gilead, when she was an independent woman who had a job, a family, and a name of her own. Now, her memories and her will to survive are acts of rebellion.
The Handmaid's Tale and its iconic images - the red of the Handmaids, the blue of the Wives, the looming ileadean Eye - have been adapted into a film, an opera, a ballet, and multi-award-winning TV series. This groundbreaking new graphic novel edition, adapted and featuring arresting artwork by Renee Nault, is destined to become a classic in its own right.

La première BD de l'autrice de La Servante écarlate !
Par une nuit noire, un jeune ingénieur en génétique est accidentellement muté par sa propre expérience lorsque son ADN est fusionné avec celui d'un chat et d'un hibou ! Devenu une créature hybride, il peut désormais voler et voir dans le noir, mais a aussi une fâcheuse tendance à dormir le jour et à manger des souris ou des petits oiseaux vivants. Nouvelles aptitudes, nouvelles habitudes, pour le meilleur et pour le pire... comment va-t-il gérer cette soudaine transformation ?
Angel Catbird est la première bande dessinée scénarisée par la romancière Margaret Atwood ! L'autrice du chef-d'oeuvre La Servante écarlate qu'on a récemment découvert à travers l'adaptation remarquée en série TV The Handmaid's Tale joue de sa merveilleuse écriture avec les codes du comics pour nous livrer une aventure enlevée, pleine de rebondissements et d'humour, qui brosse des thématiques aussi vastes et profondes que le dépassement de soi, l'éthique scientifique, la tolérance et l'amour.
