communication‚ Offred and the other handmaids find ways of sharing stories and experiences: We learned to whisper almost without sound. In the semidarkness we would stretch out our arms‚ when the Aunts weren’t looking‚ and touch each other’s hands across space. We learned to lip-read‚ our heads flat on the beds‚ turned sideways‚ and watching each other’s mouths (4). The handmaids talk to each other in order to keep alive basic human to human relationships.
