Julian West nel 1887 si addormenta profondamente e si risveglia solo dopo centotredici anni nella Boston degli anni 2000. Il giovane trova facilmente una guida, il dottor Leete, che gli spiega tutti i progressi di questa nuova era come la drastica riduzione delle ore di lavoro, la consegna quasi istantanea delle merci, una pensione con i benefici completi a 45 anni e la distribuzione equa dei beni della società a tutti i cittadini. Un mondo del tutto nuovo in cui gli Stati Uniti si sono trasformati in un’utopia socialista.Edward Bellamy (1850 – 1898) esercitò per brevissimo tempo come avvocato. Intraprese anche l’attività giornalistica a New York e a Springfield. Tuttavia, dopo aver contratto la tubercolosi, fu costretto ad abbandonare il giornalismo e a dedicarsi alla scrittura di romanzi brevi e racconti. È sicuramente conosciuto come l’autore di uno dei più noti romanzi di fantascienza del XIX secolo: "Guardando indietro, 2000-1887".

Kirjassa kuvaillaan yhteiskuntaa vuonna 2000, johon paahenkilo Julian West huomaa omituisten tapahtumien kautta siirtyneensa ihka elavana, keskelle uutta sukupolvea uusine katsantokantoineen ja tapoineen. Yhteiskunnalliset ongelmat on saatu ratkaistuiksi yhteisomistusten kautta. Uuden kukoistavan yhteiskunnan vertailukohtana toimii synkka ja riitaisa 1880-luvun Amerikka. Oman kiehtovan puolensa kirjassa muodostavat teknologisen kehityksen visiot.-
