A Description of Millenium Hall by Sarah Scott
"A Description of Millenium Hall" by Sarah Scott is a utopian novel published in 1762. Two male travelers stumble upon a secluded estate inhabited by an extraordinary community of unmarried women who have rejected patriarchal society. Through stories of personal disillusionment and hardship, each woman reveals why she chose this alternative life of female friendship and charitable work. The novel explores whether women can thrive independently while challenging conventional ideas about marriage
and women's roles in eighteenth-century British society. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
