The Bible Museum: A Deep Dive into the Bible Bible’s Cultural Influence
As I entered the halls of the Bible Museum in Washington, DC, my attention was immediately drawn to an exhibit dedicated to “The Handmaid’s Tale.” This dystopian masterpiece, based on the Bible passage Genesis 30:1-3, has captivated audiences with its chilling portrayal of a society governed by oppressive religious doctrine. This connection between scripture and modern literature served as a…

Are We Living In A Dystopian Novel?
Are We Living in a Dystopian Novel? When Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games series had a renaissance on TikTok in anticipation of the release of the latest film, A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, it dawned on me how important and almost prophetic Young Adult (YA) dystopian literature has become. While any well-written book is capable of captivating readers, dystopian literature pushes the…

A Gushing: The Testaments by Margaret Atwood (2019)
A Gushing: The Testaments by Margaret Atwood (2019)
I recently read The Testaments by the absolutely wonderful Margaret Atwood. Ms. Atwood…thank you. I don’t really want to review this book (so I’m just going to gush about it) as it really doesn’t need it in terms of “good” or “bad” or “a must-read” or “stick to The Handmaid’s Tale”. But for the record, I will say that is wasn’t good. It was amazing. It is a must-read; it is the 21st Century…

Ten Must-Read Science Fiction Novels
Ten Must-Read Science Fiction Novels
by David Kubicek It seems like everyone and his brother are doing “best” lists of novels, so I decided to get in on the act. Here is my list of ten must-read science fiction novels. I haven’t read every science fiction novel that has ever been written, but of the ones I have read, these are my favorites. Perhaps someday I’ll do my list of the next ten and later the ten after that until I, this…

Seit 2017 läuft The Handmaids’s Tale. Es handelt sich um eine der düstersten und verstörendsten Serien unter den aktuellen Serien-Highlights, nichtsdestotrotz eine, die sich absolut zu sehen lohnt. Derzeit wird die vierte Staffel ausgestrahlt. Aus diesem Anlass musste ich mir weite Teile der vorhergehenden Staffeln, vor allem der dritten, noch einmal ansehen, um wieder auf den aktuellen Stand zu…

The Handmaid’s Tale: Chapter 5 analysis
The Handmaid’s Tale: Chapter 5 analysis
A group of people is coming towards us. They’re tourists, from Japan it looks like, a trade delegation perhaps, on a tour of the historic landmarks or out for local colour. They’re diminutive and neatly turned out; each has his or her camera, his or her smile. They look around, bright-eyed, cocking their heads to one side like robins, their very cheerfulness aggressive, and I can’t help staring.…
