Sultana's Dream

Sultana's Dream is a pioneering feminist sci-fic novel authored by Rokeya S. Hossain, a woman from conservative Muslim family, who had no formal education. The story describes a fictional ladyland of the future with green urbanscapes where people travel by helicopter, use solar power and, most significantly, women are running the affairs of the state and society. This dreamland offered a totally new and different angle for women to see themselves and the world and to widen their horizon. Sultana's Dream and Rokeya have become synonymous with women's liberation in the subcontinent and beyond.
