1ST PRINTING SIGNED IN PERSON BY MARGARET ATWOOD directly to the title page at San Diego Comic Con back in 2012. NOT inscribed and NOT a bookplate. True first US printing published by Houghton Mifflin. Near-fine: the book looks and feels unread with a clean bright interior and lovely hardcover boards. Very mild wear on dust jacket, tanned a bit from age but looks very attractive with a new mylar cover. Expedited and international shipping are welcome; signed by author.

The novel focuses on the journey of the handmaid Offred, her life in this regime, and her role in society to produce children against her will.
