Dai Fujikura

H.G. Wells's story traces the experiences of a man, ravaged by dreams in which he serves as the proverbial frog in the pot of water: in a dystopian dream-world where a military dictatorship threatens to take absolute power the protagonist, formerly a powerful politician in this dream, chooses to do nothing.

The story is told through the eyes of a boy, how he wanders between reality and dream. His daily life is transformed to a surreal world through the unique sensitivity of boyhood.
