Samenvatting
When a plague wipes out most of the worlds male population and civilization crumbles, women struggle to build an agrarian community in the English countryside.
Imagine a plague that brings society to a standstill by killing off most of the men on Earth. The few men who survive descend into lechery and atavism. Meanwhile, a group of women (accompanied by one virtuous male survivor) leave the wreckage of London to start fresh, establishing a communally run agrarian outpost. But their sexist society hasnt permitted most of them to learn any useful skillswill the commune survive their first winter? This is the bleak world imagined in 1913 by English writer J. D. Beresfordone that has particular resonance for the planets residents in the 2020s. This edition of A World of Women offers twenty-first century readers a new look at a neglected classic.
Beresford introduces us to the solidly bourgeois, prim and proper Gosling family. As once-bustling London shuts downParliament closes, factories grind to a halt, nature reclaims stone and steelthe paterfamilias Mr. Gosling adopts a life of libertinism while his daughters in the countryside struggle to achieve a radically transformed and improved egalitarian and feminist future.
