Review of "The Handmaid's Tale" on 'Goodreads'

An interesting book - very post apocalyptic - but it felt like it ended too soon, with questions left unasked. For example, who are The Eyes? Why does the Commander have his position?

You don’t really get a feel for who is behind everything - the organisation is named but none of the individuals make an appearance.

Interesting, but unsatisfying.
