Description
Mizora (1890) is a pioneering work of feminist utopian science fiction by Mary E. Bradley Lane. Originally serialized between 1880 and 1881, it was later rediscovered and printed by prominent editor Murat Halstead. In this novel, Princess Vera Zarovitch finds herself in the underground world of Mizora, where an advanced society of women has eliminated war and poverty altogether. After a tragic life marked by imprisonment and loss, she awakens to discover a new world that offers her a sense of contentment and belonging. Published in 2022, this edition of Mizora is a rare opportunity to experience Lane's unique vision of a feminist utopia. With its beautiful prose and thought-provoking themes, it remains an early example of the hollow earth subgenre of science fiction and fantasy.
