I want to know if there's been any examination of dystopias from different countries. For example, I think that Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go is quite possibly the most British dystopia ever. Whereas American dystopias always go for the most extreme violence in the most extreme ways. I'm not sure where The Handmaid's Tale fits because Margaret Atwood's perspective is extremely Canadian, but obviously, also American.

Graeme Gibson, Toronto author and poet and husband to Margaret Atwood, has died at the age of 85 in London, England. He was accompanying Atwood on the tour for her widely anticipated book The Testaments, a sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale.https://t.co/6uTSbzePrO

She seemed so composed. I can't imagine.

That definitely has to be hard on her. I see it says he had dementia. At least she was able to be with him during his final days. And hopefully their daughter and others are there to support each other.
