Abstract (english)	By building up the plot on the fictional island of Trećić, Renato Baretić, in his novel “Osmi povjerenik” (The Eighth Commissioner), creates the narrative space of the utopian remote island. Utopian quality transforms into “dystopia” if the novel is read in a gender-conscious key. This article focus on the gender-sensitive reading of the novel, highlighting elements of the narrative in which gender stereotyping reshapes the utopian landscape
