“The Handmaid’s Tale” might just see a boost in viewership thanks to the Texas abortion law that went into effect on Wednesday. Season 4 of the groundbreaking Hulu series premiered in April, but it’s never too late to join the resistance.
In honor of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” and life seemingly imitating art, we’ve compiled a list of items that fans will love: books, Blu-rays of previous seasons, face masks, wine glasses, and more merchandise inspired by the Emmy-winning series and Margaret Atwood novels.
