Book
Novels, stories, & poems / Charlotte Perkins Gilman ; Alfred Bendixen, editor.
"Library of America presents the fullest selection ever of visionary American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman: two novels, forty-four brilliant short stories, nearly two-hundred poems, and both the published and manuscript versions of the landmark story "The yellow wall-paper." The short fiction presented here showcases Gilman's mastery of ghost stories, allegorical fantasy, and social realism and includes a virtuoso series of stories written in imitation of the most acclaimed authors of her day. The utopian novels "Herland" and "With her in Ourland" -- about a remote and isolated society of women -- are pioneering works of speculative fiction and still-incisive commentaries on the politics of gender. Gilman was known to her contemporaries first and foremost as a poet, and this volume brings together her collection "In this our world" with more than fifty other poems, many written in support of suffrage and other causes."--From book jacket.
