<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: The current critical analysis of The Handmaid&#8217;s Tale, by Margaret Atwood (1996), proposes exploring irony as a fertile rhetorical strategy to a feminist perspective. Through identification of the reading levels instigated by the work, we will examine how the consideration of the novel&#8217;s ironic advance enables the formation of a community of women readers. The critical work of Wayne Booth (1974; 1983) is used as central theoretical apparatus for a feminist reading which, stemming from the irony, receives the protagonist&#8217;s story in harmony with the implied author&#8217;s intentions.]]></p></abstract>
