Marianne Farningham's "Nineteen hundred?: A forecast and a story" offers a fascinating glimpse into late 19th-century anxieties and aspirations for the future of England. Categorized as both utopian fiction and dystopian, this thought-provoking narrative serves as potent social commentary, exploring potential social conditions in England.

Published originally in 1892, the book engages with themes of social prediction, envisioning a future society still decades away. Farningham's work invites readers to contemplate the trajectory of society and question the prevailing norms of her time. It remains a compelling exploration of societal possibilities, providing a window into the hopes and fears that shaped a generation as they looked toward an uncertain future. Dive into this meticulously prepared print republication of a historical text and discover the roots of our continuing fascination with forecasting the world to come.
