I just finished Louise Erdrich's dystopian novel, Future Home of the Living God. The world as we know it, has changed, plants and animals are reverting back to their ancient forms - flying lizards with feathers, aggressive plants that are no longer food, and women are no longer getting pregnant. There are a few women who can, and rigid laws are in place to capture them, and place them in prisons, where they are well fed, and cared for. Those who resist to give their babies to the state, seem to always die in childbirth.
All of this is told by a young Ojibwe woman, who was adopted by a white couple, and becomes pregnant by her boy friend, and resists the directive to turn herself in.
It has a different spin from most dystopian novels, but its misogyny is similar to that found in The Handmaid's Tale.
