1. H. G. Wells Collection The Door In The Wall And Other Stories & The First Men
A compact volume pairs lucid, often melancholic short stories about memory, missed opportunities and uncanny moments with a longer speculative tale of an audacious voyage to the moon and an encounter with an alien society; together the pieces probe human ambition, social complacency and the moral and psychological consequences of scientific discovery, mixing introspective melancholy, satirical social critique and imaginative invention.
