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

H. G. Wells' 'The Sleeper Awakes' is a groundbreaking work of science fiction that delves into the consequences of a man who wakes up after a 200-year slumber to find himself in a dystopian future. Wells' descriptive and immersive writing style effectively transports the reader into a world where the class struggle is heightened, and power dynamics are at their peak. The novel explores themes of capitalism, socialism, and technology, making it a thought-provoking read for those interested in speculative fiction. The narrative unfolds with a sense of urgency and suspense, keeping the reader engaged from start to finish. H. G. Wells, a renowned writer of his time, was known for his visionary outlook on the future and his ability to create rich and detailed worlds. Wells' own observations of society and politics likely influenced his decision to write 'The Sleeper Awakes,' a work that continues to resonate with readers to this day. I highly recommend 'The Sleeper Awakes' to readers who enjoy thought-provoking science fiction that challenges societal norms and explores the potential consequences of unchecked technological advancements. It is a classic work that remains relevant in today's world, urging readers to reflect on the impact of progress on the human experience.
