Thomas Redburn, American expatriate living in Japan, falls down drunk off his bicycle one night and wakes up onboard a time machine flying to 24th century Japan. His benign abductors take him to a nearly perfect ecosocialist world. War, poverty, inequality and all forms of discrimination no longer exist. The ecological crisis that brought down the old order has been reversed. In this classless and peaceful world made of cooperative communities should make Thomas Redburn happy. Yet, separated by centuries from his wife and children, his grief multiplies as he faces universal happiness. A classic utopian novel with a Japanese twist.
