Description
The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells, published in 1898, is a landmark science fiction novel about a Martian invasion of Earth. Told through the eyes of an unnamed narrator, it depicts the terrifying arrival of advanced alien technology and humanity's desperate struggle to survive. The story explores themes of survival, colonialism, and the fragility of civilization, making it a timeless exploration of humanity's place in the universe. The Time Machine is a groundbreaking science fiction novella published in 1895. It introduces the concept of time travel through the perspective of the Time Traveller, an unnamed scientist who invents a machine capable of traversing the fourth dimension. The story begins with a dinner party where the Time Traveller explains his theory of time and demonstrates a small working model of his machine. Later, he embarks on a journey into the distant future, encountering the gentle Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks-two evolved forms of humanity. Through his observations, Wells explores themes of class division, evolution, and the ultimate fate of civilization. The Discovery of the Future is a 1902 essay exploring humanity's ability to predict and shape the future. Wells contrasts the past-focused mindset with a forward-thinking approach, emphasizing the role of science, imagination, and planning in creating a better world. This influential work highlights the importance of progress and vision in human development.
