The dream: A novel
by H. G. Wells
"The Dream: A novel by H. G. Wells" is a novel published in 1924. In the year 4000 AD, a biologist named Sarnac experiences a vivid dream in which he lives the complete life of Harry Mortimer Smith, an Englishman born in the 1890s. Through this dream, Wells contrasts a utopian future with the "Age of Confusion" of Victorian and Edwardian England, exploring themes of class, family dysfunction, love, jealousy, and war through one ordinary man's tumultuous journey.
