A classic Victorian science fiction novelfrom the author of Around the World in Eighty Days and Journey to the Center of the Earth.
 
From one of the fathers of science fiction and the great-grandfather of steampunk—and purportedly coauthored by his son, Michel—this 1889 story covers a day in the life of a newspaper magnate a millennium into the future. The novel is replete with technological predictions both prescient and improbable, such as video telephones, pneumatic transportation tubes, air cars, built-in furniture, a managed climate, and scientifically prepared food.
 
“An exercise in letting imagination run free on describing the world of a thousand years into the future.” —genxposé
