| Summary | "Mizora: A Prophecy" by Mary E. Bradley Lane is a novel written in the late 19th century. This speculative fiction work follows the journey of Princess Vera Zarovitch as she discovers a hidden civilization beneath the Earth's surface, known as Mizora. The narrative promises an exploration of advanced societal structures, customs, and the role of women in a utopian setting devoid of men, challenging conventional ideas of gender and progress. At the start of the narrative, Princess Vera recounts her daring escape from political persecution in Russia, leading her to embark on a fateful journey that ultimately lands her in the fascinating world of Mizora. She describes the drastic differences between her own experiences and those of the inhabitants of this land, emphasizing their remarkable achievements in science, education, and societal organization, all facilitated by the absence of men. The opening portion meticulously sets up an intriguing premise as Vera finds herself navigating this new environment, where she encounters women of exceptional beauty and intellect, while grappling with her own understanding of gender roles and societal dynamics.
