I haven't read it. Is it similar to the same theme as the Handmaid's Tale?

seriously one of the most harrowing books i've ever read

the "sex" in it is particularly unpleasant. the scene when she's with the commander and the wife and they're trying to conceive...i had to put the book down for a couple weeks after finishing that

Sounds like an obvious "must read". I had never heard of it before.
