Het Jaar van de Vloed

The setting feels so specific and grounded yet eerily plausible. I'm curious whether the landscape and culture influenced the story's world-building or if it was more of a thematic choice.

The portrayal of the God's Gardeners added layers of hope and critique. I wonder if Atwood intended them as a commentary on environmental faith or something more nuanced.

The shifting viewpoints kept the story fresh but also made me think about how different experiences shape our understanding of catastrophe. Was this structure planned from the start?
