  • サマリー

  • Herland is about three clueless guys—Van, Jeff, and Terry—who discover a hidden society of women living without men for 2,000 years. These women reproduce through parthenogenesis, meaning no men required. The guys think they're about to be heroes, but the women have built a peaceful, efficient society and don't need saving.

    Terry, the macho man, tries to assert his dominance and fails miserably. Jeff, the romantic, treats the women like delicate flowers, which they find amusing. Van, the narrator, starts to appreciate Herland's way of life. The women capture the men, teach them their language, and show them how a society can thrive without patriarchy.

    The men fall for their captors, but the women want equal partners, not traditional romance. Terry can't handle it and gets kicked out. Van and his love interest, Ellador, leave Herland to explore the outside world, while Jeff stays behind, smitten with the utopian life.

    Herland is a snarky critique of early 20th-century gender roles, wrapped in a fun, adventurous package.
