In Handmaid’s Tale why does Offred value love so much? A quote from Offred states “ a person don’t die from a lack of sex but a lack of love.” Did her lust for something missing finally force her to possess a desire for nick? How come when the commander started to display kindness and affection, Offered became more discourage and confused? Judging from Offred’s desire for nick, leads to the question does Offred value her pass marriage with Luke? The narrator always mentions how she has missed her daughter and the company Luke but she don’t mention any great desire to find them. The family of Offred maybe dead as a speculation, but there is a chance they are still alive, if a friend like Moria could have survived , the possibility of Luke and her daughter might be still alive. What will happened if a scenario in which her family did find her? Will she still stay with nick or go back to her family? In addition will her family still accept her after what she have done?
