Janine Lindo

Janine Lindo (Madeline Brewer) is a main character in The Handmaid’s Tale in both the novel by Margaret Atwood and 2017 television adaptation on Hulu. Previously known as Ofwarren, Ofdaniel, and Ofhoward, she was inducted as a Handmaid at the same time as June Osborne. Her right eye was removed by the Red Center as punishment for lashing out. At first, her damaged mental state ensures her subservience, but her repeated abuse causes her to work against the government from the inside, eventually seeking escape. The television series portrays Janine as somewhat more rebellious than her literary counterpart.
