Written during the early stages of the American suffragist movement, Cridge's novel is a work of political satire that uses utopianism and science fiction to explore the progressive political activism of women of the United States and around the world. Highlighting the absurdity of gender-based oppression, Cridge produced the first feminist utopian novel in history, predating Charlotte Perkins Gilman's \u003ci\u003eHerland\u003c\/i\u003e (1915) by nearly half a century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a series of strange, prophetic dreams, a woman envisions a society on Mars in which women wield absolute power over men. Unable to leave their homes, made to perform domestic labor each and every day, the Martian men have grown tired of oppression. When technological advancements grant them more free time, they begin staging an uprising against the women of Mars in order to demand total equality. Struck by these visions, the narrator has several more dreams in which she sees a future United States ruled justly and effectively by a woman president. Detailing the reforms and advances of this utopian world, she begins to imagine if one day such a future will finally be possible. Ahead of its time and largely unrecognized upon publication, Annie Denton Cridge's \u003ci\u003eMan's Rights; or, How Would You Like It?\u003c\/i\u003e is an important work of science fiction and political imagination that not only sheds light on the nineteenth century women's suffrage movement, but remains relevant for our own, divided time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition of Annie Denton Cridge's \u003ci\u003eMan's Rights; or, How Would You Like It?\u003c\/i\u003e is a classic of American science fiction reimagined for modern readers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSince our inception in 2020, \u003cb\u003eMint Editions\u003c\/b\u003e has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission.
