It is the first book of her classic utopian feminist trilogy that includes ‘Herland’ (1915) and ‘With Her in Our Land’ (1916). After suffering from memory loss due to an accident during his trip to Tibet at the age of 25, John Robertson is eventually found by his sister Nellie thirty years later. She helps him recover his memory, but on returning home to America, John is shocked to discover that much has changed and women are now emancipated. Can he learn to accept equality of the sexes and that the misogynist views of his youth no longer exist? Readers looking for a utopian twist on Margaret Atwood's ́The Handmaid's Tale ́ will love ́Moving the Mountain ́! Charlotte Perkins Gilman, also known as Charlotte Perkins Stetson (1860-1935), was an American feminist, writer, publisher and advocate for social reform. She wrote novels, short stories, poetry, and nonfiction, and has served as a role model for future generations of feminists. She is best remembered for her semi-autobiographical short story, ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ (1899), which she wrote after suffering a severe bout of post-childbirth depression. Other notable works include her feminist utopian trilogy, ‘Moving the Mountain’ (1911), ‘Herland’ (1915), and ‘With Her in Our Land’ (1916). Gilman also published a collection of poems addressing women’s issues, called ‘In This Our World’ (1993).

Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "The Herland Trilogy: Moving the Mountain, Herland, With Her in Ourland (Utopian Classic)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Moving the Mountain is a feminist utopian novel. The book was one element in the major wave of utopian and dystopian literature that marked the later nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Perkins sends a man forward in time to a better world, but gives him deep difficulties in adjusting to it. Herland describes an isolated society composed entirely of women who reproduce via parthenogenesis. The result is an ideal social order, free of war, conflict and domination. The story is told from the perspective of Van Jennings, a student of sociology who, along with two friends, Terry O. Nicholson and Jeff Margrave, forms an expedition party to explore an area of unchartered land where it is rumored lives a society consisting entirely of women. The three friends do not really believe the rumors as they are unable to conceive of how human reproduction could occur without males. The men speculate about what a society of women would be like, each guessing differently based on the stereotype of women which he holds most dear… With Her in Ourland draws a contrast between Gilman's idealized vision of a feminist society in Herland and the darker realities of real, outside, male-dominated world. Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935) was a prominent American feminist, sociologist, novelist, writer of short stories, poetry, and nonfiction, and a lecturer for social reform.
