The Sleeper Awakes
About this book
He slept for centuries—and awoke to rule the world.
The Sleeper Awakes (1910), by H. G. Wells, is a gripping dystopian novel of wealth, power, and rebellion set in a future London transformed by technology and inequality.
The story follows Graham, an ordinary man who falls into a strange sleep and awakens two hundred years later to discover that his name and fortune have made him the ruler of a global society. But his awakening is not a blessing—it is a trap. The world is divided, the masses oppressed, and Graham becomes both a symbol of hope and a pawn in a deadly struggle between tyrants and revolutionaries.
With prophetic vision, Wells explores themes of capitalism, class conflict, and the dangers of unchecked power. His future city, filled with flying machines, towering skyscrapers, and mass media, anticipated many aspects of the modern world.
Part science fiction adventure, part political warning, The Sleeper Awakes is one of Wells' most powerful and unsettling visions of humanity's future.
