"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.

and women's roles in eighteenth-century British society. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
