Herland: How it relates to my American Literature definition

Throughout Herland, a utopian society is described while the society of elsewhere around the world is compared. The utopia seems to be the better society out of the two, especially when the idea of competition, poverty, and disease is explained. The three girls, Alima, Celis, and Ellador, are shocked by this news. Their reactions are condescending to the three men and they notice the issues of their society. Except for Terry, the men prefer Herland. They like the communal living and the positive society. They enjoyed it so much that they enjoyed living there, although the main girls were also a factor. In the end, Jeff ended up staying in Herland with Celis.
Like the men, others who read this book may have also enjoyed the utopia of Herland. They would have looked at it as a perfect place to live and made their society look bad. Especially during the time of when the book came out, in 1915, most would have enjoyed a better society than the one they were living in. During that time, World War I was going on. Although America wasn't involved until 1918, there was still a war throughout the world. This book produces an idea of a perfect society which may have inspired the audience to want to live in such a society.
This exemplifies my definition nicely because I explain how literature produces emotions, especially during wars. If this book showed people a utopian society, causing them to want to live in one, then this book produced emotions, especially during the war.
