Publisher's summary

"The Tunnel Under the World" is a science fiction short story by Frederik Pohl. It was first published in 1955.

Guy dismisses the dream and goes to work as usual, the downtown offices of Contro Chemicals, which operates a highly automated and robot-staffed petrochemicals plant. But something isn't right at all...
