Thanks Charmion. I did find it yesterday, the article i mentioned uses it. Apologies for not making that clear in my post. In fact it seems that Gavin de Becker also mentions it in the book which Dorothy recommends.

I have not read any Atwood but have read/heard/seen many interviews with her. I have always found her interesting.

I did watch the first series of The Handmaid's Tale and thought it was the best drama i saw that year. It seemed even more so in an era of Trump and ISIS. Sadly it still is relevant now.
