Herland - Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Three male explorers discover Herland, an isolated, all-female society thriving through cooperation, intelligence, and peace. In this utopia, women reproduce asexually and have built a harmonious world free of war, greed, and domination. As the men struggle to understand and adapt to this matriarchal order, their assumptions about gender and power are challenged. Charlotte Perkins Gilman uses the story to critique patriarchy and envision a society founded on equality and reason.
