Herbert George Wells (21 September 1866 – 13 August 1946),[1] usually known as H. G. Wells, was an English author, best known for his work in the science fiction genre. Wells and Jules Verne are each often referred to as "The Father of Science Fiction".[2]
Wells was an outspoken socialist and a pacifist, and his later works became increasingly political and didactic. His middle period novels (1900-1920) were more realistic; they covered lower middle class life (The History of Mr Polly) and the 'New Woman' and the Suffragettes (Ann Veronica). He was a prolific writer in many genres, including contemporary novels, history, and social commentary.
The Time Machine is a novella by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895 and later directly adapted into at least two feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. It indirectly inspired many more works of fiction in all media. This 32,000 word novella is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now universally used to refer to such a vehicle. Wells introduces an early example of the Dying Earth subgenre as well.
非常Readable,英文很简单,每个chapter长度控制得很好,悬念足够,让我禁不住一口气读完。我手上的书是有插图,插图也很有风格。 想到的一些简单记录: 1,比较早期的科幻类小说其实挺有前瞻性的,对未来的大胆猜测,十有八九是正确的。后期的科幻小说和电影/电视剧,都可以...

故事情节一气呵成,作者有好多神奇的想法,直到一百多年后的今日仍令人觉得不可思议,当然这和作者创作的时代背景有紧密的关系,感觉很大程度上受到了达尔文的物种起源和马克思的共产宣言影响。在我电头发和坐飞机的几小时迅速读完,可惜许多环境描写和气氛渲染的部分我没真的读懂(好些词不会耶)
