Read the text below: 
Offred is a Female Servant in the Republic of Gilead. She may leave the home of the 
Commander and his wife once a day to walk to food markets whose signs are now pictures 
instead of words because women are no longer allowed to read. She must lie on her back 
once a month and pray that the Commander makes her pregnant, because in an age of 
declining births, Offred and the other Female Servants are valued only if their ovaries are 
viable. Offred can remember the years before, when she lived and made love with her 
husband, Luke; when she played with and protected her daughter; when she had a job, 
money of her own, and access to knowledge. But all of that is gone now... 
Funny, unexpected, horrifying, and altogether convincing, _____________________, is 
at once scathing satire, dire warning, and tour de force.

What is the role of Expressionism in contemporary literature? 
 
 
Expressionism contained passionate reaffirmations of individuality. The

that at once attacks bourgeois society, yet it is excessively individualistic and 
thereby retools traditional bourgeois ideologies of objectivity.
