Sultana's dream

by Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain

The female narrator of "Sultana's Dream" wanders into a dream city that shuns war and violence. In this utopian world, women rule and men are content with their places in the kitchen. The queen of this kingdom explains how women won and kept their peace against men and their war-like ways.

This edition of a feminist utopian classic is a conversation across time; Durga Bai, a contemporary tribal woman artist from Central India, brings her own vision to bear on a Muslim gentlewoman's radical tale.

Short interesting early feminist story, I don't believe that one gender is essentially more nurturing than the other but her prescience about certain technology is interesting.
