The Testaments by Margaret Attwood, a sequel to her The Handmaid's Tale which I read a few years ago, won the Booker Prize in 2019 and was named by many reviewers as one of the best books, if not THE best book, of the year. It fills in information about both the rise and the fall of Gilead, the theocratic, male-centric government that was created in portions of the former USA after a coup. It is well written. The story moves quickly and keeps one's attention. I gave the book a rating of 4 1/2 stars out of 5.
