"New Amazonia: A Foretaste of the Future" by Mrs. George Corbett is a feminist utopian novel published in 1889. Written in response to an anti-suffrage petition, the novel envisions a Victorian woman and man awakening in the year 2472 to discover Ireland transformed into a female-dominated utopia. The Amazonians have created a scientifically advanced society where women hold all political power and men are barred from office. While the female narrator embraces this new world, her male companion finds himself unable to adapt to a civilization run entirely by women. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
