Book Details

The Sleeper Awakes is a dystopian novel written by H. G. Wells, it tells the story of a man, Graham, an Englishman, living in London who falls asleep in the year 1897 and wakes up 203 years later to find that the accumulated interest in his bank deposit has left him the richest man in the world and nominally its owner. He learns that he has inherited huge wealth and that the trustees of the "White Council" have used his wealth to establish a political and economic world order. His awakening sparks to present a personal struggle with confusion and a massive uprising that tries to overbalance the ruling elite. Therefore, Graham is forced to handle his renowned position in society as well as develop a leader to lead the revolution to adjust to the strange futuristic environment. So, this begins his instructive adventure as he discovers the unsettling policies of the ruling power and is forced to make a decision about whether to live up to his role as a rescuer or give up his voice to the existing power. The story is based on social class division, dehumanization, and awareness of the injustice practiced under authoritarian authority. To read this compelling and insightful piece of literature, you need to read the complete story!
