Graham awakens from a 203-year sleep to find he is the wealthiest man alive, the legal owner of a world transformed into a corporate-run dystopia. In a future of climate-controlled mega-cities and industrial slavery, he becomes a symbol of hope for the oppressed. H. G. Wells’ visionary novel explores the consequences of unchecked capitalism, the power of propaganda, and the struggle for human liberty in a world where technology has outpaced morality.
