Red Clocks by Leni Zumas

In a world where abortion has become illegal in America, in-vitro fertilization is banned and the Personhood Amendment grants rights of life, liberty, and property to every embryo, five women navigate these new barriers. A single high-school teacher desperate for a child, a frustrated mother of two, a pregnant teenager, a polar explorer from the 19th century, and a maverick herbalist facing charges of attempted murder for trying to help women with unwanted pregnancies, all grapple with the implications of these restrictive laws on their lives and identities.

The 9181st greatest book of all time
