Much of her work criticized common perceptions of the role of women in marriage and society, and advocated educational, financial, and cultural equality for women. \"Herland\" is Charlotte Perkins Gilman's utopian novel about a fictitious society of women who reproduce by asexual means resulting in an ideal society that is free of conflict and war. Originally published serially in Gilman's self-published monthly magazine \"Forerunner\" from 1909 to 1916, the title nation of \"Herland\" is symbolic of the argument for social reform in the area of woman's rights that took place in the early part of the 20th century. By placing women in such an ideal light, Gilman is arguing that women should have as much say in the matters of the world as men and if they did society would be better off for it.

Told in the first person, the story is a series of journal entries written by a woman (Jane) whose physician husband (John) has confined her to the upstairs bedroom of a house. She is forbidden from working and has to hide her journal from him, so she can recuperate from what he calls a \"temporary nervous depression - a slight hysterical tendency,\" a diagnosis common to women in that period. The brilliant short story depicts the effect of confinement on the narrator's mental health and her descent into psychosis. With nothing else to stimulate her, she becomes progressively obsessed by the pattern and color of the wallpaper.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50101574467807,"sku":"9781507839072","price":8.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/MVVoOU5wL3cwdXpKbFRVcHRLTDdwZz09.webp?v=1781071750"},{"product_id":"the-herland-trilogy-moving-the-mountain-herland-with-her-in-ourland-utopian-classic-from-the-famous-american-novelist-feminist-social-reformer-paperback","title":"The Herland Trilogy: Moving the Mountain, Herland, with Her in Ourland (Utopian Classic): From the Famous American Novelist, Feminist, Social Reformer - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003eMoving the Mountain is a feminist utopian novel.
