Readers remember “Ofwarren”, which was Janine’s signifier as her Commander (Warren)’s property, however, here the same words have been placed differently to change their meaning completely. By saying the Wife of Warren, Atwood separates “of” from “Warren”, immediately suggesting that unlike the Handmaids, the Wives are not the property of the men, and it is through word associations that Atwood plays on the memory of the readers.
