The story takes place in the year 1921, when a group of five people accidentally travel to a parallel universe where the inhabitants are far more advanced than humans. The people in this universe have abolished war, poverty, and disease, and have developed a utopian society where people are free to pursue their interests and passions without any limitations.The protagonist of the story, Mr. Barnstaple, is initially skeptical of this new world, but he soon becomes enamored with the people and their way of life. He meets a woman named Lychnis who becomes his guide and teaches him about the society and its customs. However, when Mr. Barnstaple learns that the people of this world are not immune to suffering and that they too have their own problems, he begins to question whether this utopia is truly perfect.As Mr. Barnstaple tries to find a way back to his own world, he must confront his own prejudices and biases and come to terms with the fact that the people of this universe may have something to teach him about living a more fulfilling life. Men Like Gods is a thought-provoking novel that explores themes of utopia, human nature, and the role of technology in society.1923.
