The Gate To Women’s Country – Audiobook Online By: Sheri S. Tepper

Women rule in the Nation of Women. Women live separately from men, sheltering what remains of civilization. They prevented themselves by walls and by decree from pillaging the men.

Waging war is all people good for. The men were allowed to fight each other in their barbaric battles, garrison against garrison. For his pride, each boy ritually rejected his mother when he came of age to become a warrior. But all the secrets of civilization are entirely in the possession of women.

Naturally, there are men who want to know what women know. And when Stavia meets Chernon, the war between the sexes begins again. Stupidly, she provided books for Chernon to read. Before long, Chernon was hatching a plan to get revenge on women.

One of the quintessential feminist SF novels, Sheri Tepper once again creates a world where numerous issues and compelling characters are carefully crafted into a compelling story that draws you in and draws you along. A must-read book.

I have loved this book since I first read it many years ago. It’s a bit dark, as expected, providing a post-apocalyptic setting, but not too graphic. In the novel, many generations have passed since the time of the “convulsion” and the story is about a society that has rebuilt itself to new standards. The story stands the test of time, and is ultimately both a warning and a fantasy about how things might play out in an alternate reality.
