The Invisible Man and The Food of the Gods - Herbert George Wells
With an Introduction and Notes by Linda Dryden, Professor of English Literature at Edinburgh Napier University and the author of Joseph Conrad and H. G. Wells: The Fin-de Siecle-Literary Scene.At the end of the nineteenth century a stranger arrives in the Sussex countryside and mayhem ensues; in the sleepy county of Kent a miracle food brings biological chaos that engulfs and threatens the entire planet. H. G. Wells s fertile and mercurial imagination never brought us more bizarre and unsettling stories than those revealed in The Invisible Man (1897) and The Food of the Gods, and How It Came to Earth (1904). These are stories of extraordinary physical transformations and are at once extremely funny and richly imaginative. At the same time, Wells poses some very probing questions about the ethical dimensions to science and the human capacity for both pity and cruelty. Brought together for the first time in this new Wordsworth edition, The Invisible Man and The Food of the Gods are two of Wells s most entertaining and thought-provoking works.

In the field of supernatural and fantastic literature, certain names come readily to mind â “ E.T.A. Hoffmann, Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft â “ but the name of Fitz-James Oâ ™Brien has been unjustly overlooked and nearly forgotten since his premature death in 1862 during the American Civil War.â ˜The Diamond Lensâ ™, Oâ ™Brienâ ™s most famous short story, can be regarded as a forerunner of the science-fiction genre; â ˜What Was It?â ™ is alleged to have served as a model for H.G. Wellsâ ™s The Invisible Man; and The Wondersmithâ ™ is a marvellous tale of Hoffmannesque invention. Taken together, Oâ ™Brienâ ™s few surviving stories give him an important place in the development of American fiction and remain as fresh today as when they first written more than a hundred and fifty years ago.Contents: The Diamond Lens, The Lost Room, What Was It?, The Wondersmith, The Pot of Tulips, The Dragon Fang possessed by the Conjurer Piou-Lou

Invisible Man - Ralph Ellison
New Penguin Essentials edition of Ralph Ellison s blistering, impassioned novel of African-American lives in 1940s America, Invisible Man. I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me. Defeated and embittered by a country which treats him as a non-being, the invisible man retreats into an underground cell, where he smokes, drinks, listens to jazz and recounts his search for identity in white society: as an optimistic student in the Deep South, in the north with the black activist group the Brotherhood, and in the Harlem race riots. And explains how he came to be living underground . . .
