"In the wake of a fever that decimated the earth's population--killing women and children and making childbirth deadly for the mother and infant--the midwife must pick her way through the bones of the world she once knew to find her place in this dangerous new one. Gone are the pillars of civilization. All that remains is power--and the strong who possess it. A few women like her survived, though they are scarce. Even fewer are safe from the clans of men, who, driven by fear, seek to control those remaining"--Back cover.

Which doesn't make the book bad, I suppose. The catastrophe is a plague rather than nuclear war. Her book about when society has reconstituted itself, "Bannerless," is not at all bad, and won the Philip K. Dick prize. The book bears no similarity at all to Dick's books, but I suppose they don't give the award on that basis.
