Interesting ideas July 22, 2007
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
An interesting offering from among H G's lesser known works. The central idea is quite a chilling one, esp. when the Sleeper wakes and realises for how long he has slept. The novel also offers a fairly effective critique of monopoly capitalism, though the way in which it arises here is rather unlikely. A word of warning: there are some rather pejorative comments about black people here, even from the lips of the Sleeper himself: it is important to remember it is a novel of its time.
