What is Edward Bellamy : Looking Backward about?

The Book Tells The Story Of Julian West, A Young American Who, Towards The End Of The 19th Century, Falls Into A Deep, Hypnosis-induced Sleep And Wakes Up One Hundred And Thirteen Years Later. He Finds Himself In The Same Location (boston, Massachusetts), But In A Totally Changed World: It Is The Year 2000 And, While He Was Sleeping, The United States Has Been Transformed Into A Socialist Utopia. The Remainder Of The Book Outlines Bellamy's Thoughts About Improving The Future. The Major Themes Include Problems Associated With Capitalism. The Young Man Readily Finds A Guide, Doctor Leete, Who Shows Him Around And Explains All The Advances Of This New Age; Including Drastically Reduced Working Hours For People Performing Menial Jobs And Almost Instantaneous, Internet-like Delivery Of Goods. The Goods Of Society Are Equally Distributed To Its Citizens. A Considerable Portion Of The Book Is Dialogue Between Leete And West Wherein West Expresses His Confusion About How The Future Society Works And Leete Explains.
