‘The Testaments’ feels timely because it’s the Epstein files writ large

Originally, this story didn’t involve Donald Trump – the book was written in 1985 and the show was approved for production before he became president. This just highlights how disturbingly relevant Atwood’s ideas still are. So it’s not shocking that the new series, “The Testaments,” also connects to current events. While presented as a young adult drama – think “Pretty Little Liars” or “Gossip Girl” – “The Testaments” explores themes reminiscent of the Epstein case.
