Background
Source: Wikipedia
Mary E. Bradley Lane (July 3, 1844, St Mary's, Ohio – January 6, 1930, Hamilton County, Ohio) was an American feminist science fiction teacher and author. She was one of the first women to have published a science fiction novel in the United States. Lane's novel, Mizora: A Prophecy, was first published in 1880 as a serial in a Cincinnati newspaper, and has remained remarkable for the radicalism of the feminist utopia presented, against 19th century societal norms.
