Published in 1888 and set in the year 2000, our protagonist falls asleep in 1887 and wakes up in a future socialist utopia.
Bellamy's book sparked a wave of utopian writing (including William Morris's News from Nowhere) and intentional communities in the late 19th Century, and was influential in the garden city movement.
The text is available for free online at Project Gutenberg or you can buy it in book form if that is your preference.
