weakest of the trilogy, seemed to raise some interesting points but didn't pursue them. First book is one of my all time favourites, but this was a strange addition to the story

A fitting finale to the trilogy begun in Oryx and Crake (which I am now rereading.) These books are not for the squeamish or faint of heart -- raw language, violence, etc. -- just as you'd expect from a dystopian society of the not too distant future. Together the three books paint an uncomfortably perceptive account of what life on earth might be like if global warming, genetic engineering and corporate exploitation of the populace should continue unchecked. I wasn't sure if this series could conclude on anything resembling a hopeful note -- but surprisingly, it does.

Satisfying conclusion to this dystopian trilogy, providing the final details on how their whole world came to be the way it is and how they adapt to it

Atwood est excellente en fiction spéculative. Elle arrive à créer des mondes qui font peur et qui choquent à partir de données réelles et d'avancées technologiques qui sont déjà disponibles. De la science-fiction qui fait réfléchir.
La trilogie se passe vers la fin du 21e siècle après que la majorité de la population ait été décimée (je passe le comment puisque ça fait partie de l'intrigue) mais le tome 3 revient dans le passé et vient ficeler les intrigues des 2 premiers tomes.
J'ai beaucoup aimé!
