Original Note:
Margaret Atwood was partly inspired by the Islamic Republic of Iran of 1978-79. The Handmaid’s Tale even references it in the form of history book “Iran and Guilead: Two Late Twentieth Century Monotheocracies”, mentioned in the endnotes. https://archive.org/stream/3TheHandmaidsTaleByMargaretAtwood/3_The_Handmaids_Tale_by_Margaret_Atwood_djvu.txt https://senecalearning.com/en-GB/revision-notes/a-level/english-literature/edexcel/the-handmaids-tale/4-3-1-berlin-and-iran
