H. G. Wells

"

Born Herbert George Wells in Kent in 1866, H. G. Wells was an outspoken socialist and pacifist, whose works caused some controversy. He is more widely known as a science fiction writer for the novels that he published between 1895 and 1901: The Time Machine, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The Invisible Man, The War of the Worlds, When the Sleeper Wakes and The First Men in the Moon. All, except for When the Sleeper Wakes, have been made into films.

Along with Jules Verne, H. G. Wells is also known as 'the Father of Science Fiction'.

His later novels were more realistic and he wrote many genres, including contemporary novels, history and social commentary.

H. G. Wells died in 1946.

Samenvatting

The Collected Works of H. G. Wells is a monumental collection of science fiction novels, short stories, and essays that showcase H. G. Wells' visionary imagination and his profound impact on the genre. Wells' literary style is characterized by his ability to combine scientific speculation with social commentary, creating works that are both thought-provoking and entertaining. From the timeless classic 'The War of the Worlds' to the imaginative 'The Invisible Man', this collection is a treasure trove of imaginative storytelling that continues to captivate readers today. H. G. Wells, a prolific writer and social reformer, was heavily influenced by his interest in scientific advancements and his concerns about the future of society. His experiences growing up in the industrial age inspired many of his works, which often explore themes of progress, morality, and the consequences of unchecked power. Wells' curiosity about the world and his desire to envision different futures drove him to create some of the most enduring works in science fiction literature. I highly recommend The Collected Works of H. G. Wells to anyone interested in exploring the intersections of science, society, and imagination. Wells' ability to blend scientific accuracy with speculative fiction makes this collection a must-read for fans of the genre and those interested in the ways in which literature can shape our understanding of the world.
