The First Men in the Moon (Paperback, New Ed)


The First Men in the Moon (1901) is one of the most dazzling of Wells's 'scientific romances, ' and the last of the series which began with The Time Machine. Leaving their humdrum lives in Kent, Mr. Bedford and Mr. Cavor invade the moon and are captured by the ant-like Selenites. They are forced to confront their own littleness when viewed in a cosmic perspective, and the result is a highly entertaining satire on imperialism in particular and human frailty in general.
