Task 1:
List the questions:
1. Who is speaking? 2. Who are Aunt Lydia and Aunt Elizebeth? 3. Who are the angles?
4. Why are they in a gymnasium?
Sugest why 'a palimpsest..." is a well chosen metaphor in this chapter and , in general, is applicable to the whole text.
A palimpsest is a well chosen metaphor in this chapter and in general. The reason why Atwood has chosen this word is because Offred is talking about the things that went on in the gymnasium in the past, so to use this word, it describes that you can;t hear the piece of writing, but it is still there.
