In his youth Mr Lewisham thought little of love and much of greatness. A worthy scholar he concerned himself with the works of Shakespeare and Emerson, Confucius and Carlyle. But that was before he accompanied the boys to church one Sunday and found that the Frobishers' pew was occupied by an unknown lady. For Mr Lewisham, knowing little of love and its far from smooth path, this was to be the beginning of a deep inner conflict. AUTHBIO: Known as the 'Father of Science Fiction', H G Wells was responsible for an entirely new genre of writing. It was his bold, daring and hugely innovative books that first introduced readers to the concepts of time travel, invisibility, genetic experimentation and interstellar invasion - ideas that have gone on to inspire future generations and given rise to the entire science fiction industry. Disturbingly accurate in his prophetic writing, H G Wells was also the author of a number of key sociological and historical works.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
作者简介
HG Wells was born in Bromley, Kent in 1866. After working as a draper's apprentice and pupil-teacher, he won a scholarship to the Normal School of Science in 1884, studying under T H Huxley. He was awarded a first-class honours degree in biology and resumed teaching but had to retire after a kick from an ill-natured pupil afflicted his kidneys. He worked in poverty in London as a crammer while experimenting in journalism and stories. It was with The Time Machine (1895) that he had his real breakthrough.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
