Wells\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: McFarland & Co Inc, United States\nImprint: McFarland & Co Inc\nISBN-13: 9780786468775, 978-0786468775\nSynopsis\nThings to Come is the 1936 release of London Films, produced from the 1935 \""film story\"" by [url] Wells, the text of the present work. The book includes more than 100 illustrations, most of them publicity stills that are all the more relevant because Wells, for a script writer, had unusual control over the actual film production. The images are very much a direct expression of his film story. Done at age 70, Things to Come reflects on a long literary career, in both fiction and nonfiction, often given to the fate of man and the prospect of a unified world state, a utopian future realized in the film by [url] 2036. That is what is coming: the end of warfare between belligerent nation states. Now the new frontier.
