Set against the backdrop of post-Civil War America, this influential utopian science fiction novel explores the consequences of growing inequality and a capitalist society. The protagonist, Julian West, falls into a deep sleep and awakens in the year 2000 to discover a transformed America, now a socialist utopia characterized by technological progress and cooperative living. Through his encounters, particularly with Doctor Leete, West learns about the societal changes that have occurred, making it a seminal work that inspired many to advocate for socialistic reforms.
