When H.G. Wells left school in
1880
at the age of
thirteen he looked destined for obscurity. Defying
expectations, he went on to become one of the most
famous writers in the world, remaining active into the
era of the atomic bomb, which he had predicted thirty
years earlier. Along the way he created classic science-
fiction tales such as The Time Machine, The Invisible Man
and The War of the Worlds, reinvented the Dickensian
novel in Kipps and The History of Mr Polly, pioneered
postmodernism in experimental fictions such as
Γοηο-
Bungay and harangued his contemporaries in a series
of left-liberal polemics which included two bestselling
histories of the world. He brought equal energy to his
love life, outrageously promiscuous even by the standards
of today. A series of often overlapping affairs embraced
distinguished authors such as Dorothy Richardson and
Rebecca West, daughters of friends, the gun-toting travel
writer Odette Keun and the Russian spy
Moura
Budberg.
Wells had many artistic and ideological confrontations
with his contemporaries, from Henry James and George
Orwell to Churchill and Stalin, and remains a controversial
figure to this day, attacked by some as a philistine, a sexist
and a racist, praised by others as a great writer, a prophet
of globalization and a pioneer of human rights.
Wells scholar
Michael
Sherborne sets the record straight
in a detailed, authoritative biography, which draws on a
deep knowledge of published and unpublished sources. It
is the first full-scale account of Wells to include material
from the long-suppressed 'skeleton correspondence' with
his mistresses and illegitimate daughter. His life is a great
story in its own right. Here it is retold from a
21st-century
perspective, which makes it fascinating reading to
specialists and general readers alike. |
