Miles away from the fabulous science fiction for which Wells is best known, this comic romp unspools the unlikely story of a timid, financially strapped, unhappily married shopkeeper whose plan to do away with himself fails miserably—and in fact inspires him to do something adventurous with his life. Wells himself called this “one of my good books.”
About the author
H. G. Wells (1866–1946), is often called the “Father of Science Fiction.” While science fiction was his most popular genre, Wells also wrote on history, politics, and made social commentary. His “scientific romances” speculated about the future, scientific advancements, and outer space. His works include The Time Machine, and The War of the Worlds.
