Atwood through the authentic narration and recollection of Offred voice creates ironic intention in the subverting of the bible for biblical precedence to disempower the use of communication and draw attention to the ethos and paradox of the Gileadean regime.

^ Ok so this is one of my sentences that I'm using for an essay I have to write. Does the use of paradox make sense? All the other words I tried to put in e.g. inconsistency, contradiction e.t.c did not sound right to me, or maybe I'm over thinking it. Does anyone have any ideas?


Thanks so much! Much appreciated!

Subverting the bible FOR biblical precedence? You contradict yourself a bit
Take out "the use of communication."

Too cluttered and wordy. Also unclear on what your argument means by 'subverting the bible'.
