Herbert George Wells, commonly known as H.G. Wells (1866–1946), was an English writer prolific in many genres, including the novel, history, politics, and social commentary, and textbooks and rules for war games. However, he is best remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to his groundbreaking works such as ‘The Time Machine’ (1895), ‘The Island of Doctor Moreau’ (1896), ‘The Invisible Man’ (1897), and ‘The War of the Worlds’ (1898). Wells was also a futurist and a visionary, often contemplating the plight and potential of human progress, or its absence, with his critical and sometimes satirical prose. In his later years, he wrote ‘The Fate of Man’ (1939), a work that tackles the imminent dangers and possible futures humanity faces, demonstrating his persistent engagement with the social and scientific prospects of the future. Wells’s literary style is characterized by a combination of vivid imagination, keen insight into human behavior, and an unwavering commitment to social and political critique. His ability to blend speculative fiction with socio-political inquiry established new avenues for literature and helped to elevate the status of science fiction as a serious genre.
