The Sleeper Awakens by Herbert George Wells... The Sleeper Awakens, the first dystopia in the history of literature. It tells the story of Graham, a gentleman suffering from a rare insomnia disorder, who finally manages to sleep. However, this time he will sleep for 200 years. When he wakes up, he discovers that he is the richest and most powerful man in the world. He now lives in a completely different and unknown world. He is the sole master and owner of the world! The Council has managed its wealth while it sleeps, and has created an extremely dark and cruel system that dominates the entire planet. However, what is expected of Graham and what people now see as a savior, is to save society from these terrible tyrants. Another masterpiece by Herbert Wells. Although written more than a century ago, the rise of global corporations and the use of airplanes for travel and the fact that it successfully predicted many technological developments long before its time remains surprising. "The Sleeper Awakens" depicts a world grappling with social injustice alongside its own accelerating development
