Autorenporträt

Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was an English writer, historian, sociologist, and journalist. His interests in technology and time travel (a term he is thought to have coined), have seen him hailed as one of the pioneers of the science-fiction genre. During his career, Wells wrote over 50 novels, alongside more than 60 short stories and numerous historical and scientific papers. Many of his most famous works have been adapted for film and television, such as 'War of the Worlds,' starring Tom Cruise, 'The Island of Dr Moreau,' starring Val Kilmer, and 'The Invisible Man,' starring 'Elizabeth Moss.'
