Description

When the Sleeper Wakes by H.G. Wells is a thought-provoking novel that has left a lasting impression on readers since its publication in 1899. The story follows Graham, who falls into a deep trance and awakens 203 years later to find himself in a world vastly different from his own. He discovers a London encased in a glass dome, where the social hierarchy of the past has hardened into rigid castes. As Graham navigates this new world, he becomes embroiled in a brewing revolution that challenges everything he thought he knew. This edition of When the Sleeper Wakes preserves the original version, published in 1908 as The Sleeper Awakes, but with added historical context and illustrations from the time period.
