In November 2018, Margaret Atwood announced that she would be releasing a sequel to her 1985 novel “The Handmaid’s Tale” in September 2019. The sequel, entitled “The Testaments,” has no connection to the Hulu television adaptation of “The Handmaid’s Tale.” It follows three female narrators from Gilead, a dystopian America, and is set 15 years after the first novel.
