G. Wells (1866-1946) brought enormous inventiveness and an underlying social vision and moral concern to his strange tales and bizarre imaginings.

It is one of Wells' earliest and most sinister personifications of the scientific quest to control and manipulate the natural world, and, ultimately, human nature itself.\u003cbr\u003eFirst published in 1896, \u003ci\u003eThe Island of Dr. Moreau\u003c\/i\u003e has intrigued and horrified readers for generations.
