A man goes to sleep in the den of a home on the outskirts of London and awakes in the new country of England far in the future. He sets off through the streets of London, encountering many strange and wondrous people and customs. Prophetically, Morris displays concern for the direction of society by showing a parallel world in which technology is sustainable and capital is unnecessary.
