Synopsis

""The Sleeper Awakes,"" a revised edition of H.G. Wells' ""When the Sleeper Wakes,"" is a science fiction novel published in 1910. It tells the story of a man named Graham who falls into a deep sleep in 1897 and wakes up in a dystopian future in the year 2100. He finds himself in possession of an enormous fortune and is forced to confront a world dominated by a ruthless oligarchy that controls every aspect of life. As Graham becomes involved in a struggle against this oppressive regime, the novel explores themes of power, wealth, and societal control. H.G. Wells significantly revised the original text, incorporating his evolving views on social and political issues, to create a narrative that offers a stark commentary on the consequences of unchecked power and the importance of individual agency in the face of authoritarianism.
