The Handmaid's Tale is property of Margaret Atwood

This was written for an assignment in my AP English Literature class, in which we were to re-write the Ceremony from Serena Joy's perspective. It is both much shorter and much less explicit than the original, but my teacher loved it, so I figured I might as well post it here. Feedback makes you a cool person.

I find her less bitter here and more desperate, seeing as some wives hate the process. Also, it is refreshingly a bit more sympathetic in tone, with the mother-child perspective a curious parallel to the veritable master-slave dynamic so often used to describe the relationship between wife and handmaid.
