Handmaids tale Section headings 19th September 2010

The section headings in Handmaids tale are short and concise; therefore, they are only a couple of words or even less. These headings make the audience wonder what significance these words might have. "Night, Soul scrolls, Birth Day". personally these words seem very abstract and and they are not words that I would use on a day to day basis which gives the impression that the book may have a twist to it. The short effective headings lure the reader in and it makes them want to read on. From the first chapter you can tell that this book is well written and it has a lot of meaning to it.
