by H. G. Wells
'Cuando el dormido despierte...' Summary
La novela relata la historia de un hombre que despierta después de doscientos años de sueño, encontrándose en un Londres completamente transformado, una megalópolis dominada por el capitalismo despiadado y un gobierno tiránico. La ciudad está dividida entre una élite adinerada que controla el poder y la masa trabajadora que vive en la pobreza y la opresión. El protagonista se enfrenta a la desconcertante realidad de un mundo que ha dejado atrás, donde su pasado carece de significado y su riqueza lo convierte en un blanco de sospechas e intrigas. La novela explora las consecuencias de un capitalismo descontrolado y la influencia de la tecnología en la sociedad. A través de la perspectiva del protagonista, Wells critica la desigualdad social, la corrupción política y la alienación humana en una sociedad futurista que se ha convertido en un escenario de control y dominación.Book Details
