Über den Autor

H. G. Wells (1866–1946) was a seminal figure in the world of literature, known predominantly for his contributions to the science fiction genre. His works often fused his vivid imagination with a prescient awareness of the contemporary sociopolitical context. A prolific writer, Wells's bibliography includes a raft of novels that remain touchstones within the science fiction pantheon. His timeless classics such as 'The Time Machine' (1895), 'The War of the Worlds' (1898), 'The Invisible Man' (1897), and 'The Island of Doctor Moreau' (1896) showcase Wells's talent for marrying adventurous storytelling with thoughtful social commentary. His narratives, while ostensibly focusing on fantastical elements, deftly explored the human condition and the potential dangers of unchecked technological and scientific advancement. Wells's influence expanded beyond the boundaries of literature; he penned works on history and social science, with 'The Outline of History' (1920) being particularly noted for its ambitious attempt to provide a comprehensive guide to the unfolding of human events. Through 'H. G. Wells: Collected Works' and other editions of his oeuvre, Wells's impact on both literature and culture at large has endured. His style is characterized by a deft blend of clear prose, foresight, and an uncanny ability to entertain while simultaneously provoking deep thought on issues of ethical significance.
