About this listen

In Herland, Charlotte Perkins Gilman imagines a hidden utopia untouched by men for over two thousand years—an all-female society flourishing in peace, cooperation, and innovation. When three curious male explorers—Vandyck Jennings, Terry Nicholson, and Jeff Margrave—stumble upon this mysterious land, their expectations are upended by a civilization that thrives without war, dominance, or patriarchy.

Blending satire, social commentary, and speculative fiction, Herland critiques early 20th-century gender roles and envisions a radical rethinking of what a just and sustainable society could look like. As the men's values clash with those of Herland’s enlightened inhabitants, the novel challenges listeners to question long-held assumptions about gender, power, motherhood, and human potential.

This thought-provoking classic remains strikingly relevant today, offering a compelling exploration of feminism, societal design, and the possibility of true equality.
