Description

In a future London of towers and labour-serfdom, Elizabeth and Denton fight family hypnotism, elope, fail at country life, and learn what progress costs the poor. Romance under the machinery. Spoken as Wells dystopia when love has nowhere soft to land.

Author

H. G. Wells (1866–1946) was born in Bromley, trained in biology under Huxley, and turned that laboratory habit into fiction. The Time Machine sent a Victorian into deep time; The War of the Worlds brought the sky down on the Home Counties. He wrote as if the future were a social problem with monsters attached. The novels argue while they entertain. A draper's son who made scientific romance a public language.
