Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"A Crystal Age" by W. H. Hudson is a utopian novel first published in 1887. After a mysterious accident, a man awakens in a distant future society that has abandoned technology for pastoral simplicity. Captivated by a beautiful young woman named Yoletta, he struggles to understand this enigmatic world where nothing is as it seems—including age itself. As he attempts to prove his worth and win love in this strange new civilization, he must navigate customs and values completely foreign to his Victorian sensibilities.
