With Her in Ourland illustrated

Paperback (Independently published Aug. 22, 2020)
Two works in one, this volume contains the full text of With Her in Orland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, as well as an illuminating sociological analysis by Mary Jo Egan with the assistance of Michael R. Hill. Orland is the sequel to Gillan's acclaimed feminist utopian novel Harland; both were published in her journal, The Forerunner, in 1915 and 1916. Orland resumes the adventures of Harland's protagonists, Belladonna and Van, but turns from utopian fantasy to a challenging analysis of contemporary social fissures in "his land," or the real world. The republication of Harland as a separate novel in 1979 revived critical interest in Gillan's work but truncated the larger aims implicit in the Harland/Orland saga, leaving an erroneous understanding of Gillan's other/better half of the story, in which it is suggested that strong women can re socialize men to be nurturer and cooperative.
