HERLAND

Charlotte Perkins Gilman

There is a land in the mountains that no man has found. A utopia with no king, no war, and no history of either. For two thousand years, this society was built by women. Then three men, certain it is theirs to discover, arrive. What they find in Herland forces them to question all that they left behind.


From Charlotte Perkins Gilman, author of cult classic "The Yellow Wallpaper," comes Herland. An essential novel in the canon of feminist speculative literature, Herland is a provocative exploration of the borders between individuality and community, masculinity and femininity, dystopia and utopia. What might a different society look like? it asks. Who might it be for? These questions are as urgent now as they were when Herland was first printed over a century ago.
