H.G. Wells's genius is perfectly shown in this collection of his most famous and enduring stories. From the eerily prescient visions of the future in The Time Machine to the palpable fear and paranoia of an alien invasion in The War of the Worlds, each is a masterpiece in its own right. Whether for devoted Wells aficionados or readers discovering his work for the first time, this collection is an essential addition to the library of any science fiction fan.
What is fate, in a culture of free will and self-determination? Where do we project our doom, that ancient and evolving belief in pre-destination? In this issue of Granta, twenty writers meditate on fate, in all its many forms.
In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet of the past.
