Herland: Book Guide, Author and Facts
Herland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman — plot, author, genre and where to read, in one evergreen guide.
On the eve of WWI, three American male explorers stumble onto an all-female society somewhere in the distant reaches of the earth. Unable to believe their eyes, they promptly set out to find some men, convinced that since this is a civilized country--there must be men. So begins this sparkling utopian novel, a romp through a whole world "masculine" and "feminine", as on target today as when it was written 65 years ago.
