Sarnac is a scientist and a leading figure in the field of chemical
reactions of cells. Plagued by a beautiful and terrifying dream he had
when he was a young child, he reflects on his early years in an attempt
to understand the dream's roots. However, he finds that his dreams and
the reality he has lived have become so entangled that he is no longer
able to distinguish between them. H G Wells' "The Dream" is a profound
and magical childhood romance highly recommended for all lovers of the
English language. Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was a prolific
English writer who wrote in a variety of genres, including the novel,
politics, history, and social commentary. Today, he is perhaps best
remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to
such novels as "The Time Machine" (1895), "The Invisible Man" (1897),
and "The War of the Worlds" (1898). Many vintage books such as this are
becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this
book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a
specially commissioned new biography of the author.
