Patria was the only one spared, besides Dedé, who never joined her sisters in the revolution. (Wasn’t that a wise choice?) Before arresting Patria’s husband and son, the secret police ravage their home, tearing apart everything they own and burning the remains. This is one example of the evil tactics the secret police used in order to spread fear and prevent the Dominicans from rebelling. After witnessing the life she built being burned to the ground and her husband and only son snatched away from her, Patria collapses, crying, tearing up the grass at her feet, and wailing up to the heavens in grief.

Curly’s wife never achieves her dream because she trapped herself in an awful marriage to escape her family and did not think about the consequences. When she was younger, Curley’s wife desperately wanted to be a famous actor. People told her that she had incredible talent and was a “natural” at acting, and she looked past the possibility that these could all just be good pick-up lines, weaving herself a web of lies (88).

Offred, although she is the main character of the story, she is not described as what you would usually describe as a “traditional heroine”. Atwood would have liked Offred to be a more active character in her story

Minerva was the second oldest and the strongest of the Mirabal sisters. “She was always into her wrong and rights” and that’s why so many people (Mostly women) honor her till this day.

She frankly talks about her struggles as a writer in order to encourage the readers to feel comfortable making their first attempts.

Isaac and his family were only interested in what Batsheva would bring home as a dowry. His mother and sister were already examining the riches from America even before the marriage ceremony. Isaac’s mother so jealous of Batsheva and her riches steps on her wedding dress leaving the ugly imprint of her dirty shoes. Batsheva finds herself sitting all alone on her first night trying to unbutton her dress wherein her husband was nowhere to be seen and all of Batsheva’s dreams are crushed.
