Dropping the curtain the way you want is such a huge privilege.” Bruce added, “I’ve been thinking about the end since the beginning.

I’ve been thinking about the end of this story since I read The Handmaid’s Tale the first time. It’s one of those books that when you finish reading it, all you think about is the end.
