The Island of Doctor Moreau (Broadview Editions),H.G. Wells

Broadview Press Ltd

A classic of science fiction and a dark meditation on Darwinian thought in the late Victorian period, The Island of Doctor Moreau explores the possibility of civilization as a constraint imposed on savage human nature. The protagonist, Edward Prendick, finds himself stranded on an island with the notorious Doctor Moreau, whose experiments on the island\u2019s humans and animals result in unspeakable horrors.\nThe critical introduction to this Broadview Edition gives particular emphasis to Wells\u2019s hostility towards religion as well as his thorough knowledge of the Darwinian thought of his time. Appendices provide passages from Darwin and Huxley related to Wells\u2019s early writing; in addition, excerpts from other writers illustrate late-nineteenth-century anxieties about social degeneration.\n\nIsland of Doctor Moreau\n\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n\nPlease note: the price advertise;
