OverviewPhilosophers look beyond the sea of red dresses to reveal insights about gender inequality, religious oppression, power, and violence. In The Handmaid's Tale and Philosophy, philosophers give their insights into the blockbuster best-selling novel and record-breaking TV series, The Handmaid's Tale.
