The Sleeper Awakes

⏳ A man sleeps for centuries—and awakens to a world ruled by his own fortune. ⏳

H. G. Wells's The Sleeper Awakes is a powerful and prophetic work of science fiction—a sweeping vision of the future that exposes the dangers of greed, technology, and social control.

The story follows Graham, a man who falls into a mysterious sleep at the end of the 19th century and awakens two hundred years later to find that his investments have made him the richest—and most powerful—man on Earth. But the utopian world he expects is instead a nightmare of oppression and inequality, where a vast underclass toils under the rule of a privileged few who control the masses through propaganda and pleasure.

As rebellion brews and Graham becomes an unwitting symbol of revolution, Wells delivers a thrilling tale of political awakening, social unrest, and moral responsibility. Written decades before Orwell's 1984 or Huxley's Brave New World, The Sleeper Awakes foreshadows their warnings about totalitarianism and the perils of unchecked power.

With its breathtaking imagination and sharp social critique, this classic remains one of Wells's most underrated masterpieces—an early blueprint for the modern dystopian genre.
