陆士谔32岁（1910年）写下的代表作，这是一部令人万分惊叹的小说。小说以第一人称写作，是一部以梦为载体的幻想之作。主人公陆云翔在1910年做了一个梦，醒来后他惊异地发现上海已是一派全新的繁华景象。城市里地铁穿梭，洋房鳞次栉比，跑马厅附近修建了大剧院，陆家嘴成为金融中心……所涉及的领域涵盖了科技、交通、建筑、医学、工业等诸多方面，与今天的真实情况所差无几。此外，书中还提到很多事物，如通光避雨的雨街、供普通百姓乘坐的飞车、可以在水面自由行走的水行鞋、类似电影情节效果的焰火、只用“汽”不用水的新式浴法等，至今尚待实现。本书最令人称奇之处，是写到万国博览会，即现在所称的世界博览会在上海举办的情景：“一座很大的铁桥，跨着黄浦，直筑到对岸浦东……开办万国博览会，为了上海没处可以建筑会场，特在浦东辟地造屋。那时，上海人因往来不便，才提议建造这桥的。现在，浦东地方已兴旺的与上海差不多了。”小说预言的细节与百年之后的现实精确吻合，令人惊奇。
