Navigating the societal expectations and limitations placed upon her, Agnes's search for identity and personal autonomy takes her on a path of self-discovery that challenges the very foundations of the Gilead way of life.
The third narrative introduces us to Daisy, a young woman living in Canada, whose life is upended when she discovers a startling connection to Gilead's past and present. As she grapples with this revelation, Daisy is compelled to confront the realities of the world beyond her own and consider her role in the ongoing struggle against the oppressive regime.
