Description
Charlotte Perkins Gilman's novel Herland explores a thought-provoking utopian society where women have created a cooperative, matriarchal community. Three male explorers discover this land and, through their observations, come to reevaluate their own values and way of life. As they study Herland culture, the men begin to understand how the women's selective reproduction has led to an ideal, fertile, peaceful, and clean society. This edition includes the original text from The Forerunner in 1915, as well as additional stories, poetry, and nonfiction writing by Gilman on topics such as birth control, capital punishment, and eugenics. This collection provides a rich context for understanding Herland, including an excerpt from the sequel, With Her in Ourland.
