Try passing the parser options as a hash reference:

  my $doc = $parser->parse_html_string($str, {encoding => 'utf-8'});

In order to print Unicode text strings (as opposed to octet strings)
correctly to a terminal (UTF-8 or not), add the following line before
the first output:

  binmode STDOUT, ':utf8';

But note that STDOUT is global.

Hope this helps!
