Herbert George Wells 
Au Temps de la Comète 

Support
Un jeune commis de manufacture de Clayton peut aussi devenir un héros romantique. La rencontre de Nettie va lui révéler, avec l’amour absolu qu’il reçoit, la jalousie absolue. Mais cet événement coïncide avec un phénomène d’une importance capitale pour l’humanité entière : l’apparition d’une comète qui se dirige vers la Terre et provoque une mutation de l’atmosphère.

Comment peuvent alors réagir les êtres ? Comment leurs intérêts et leurs sentiments évoluent-ils en fonction d’un bouleversement impossible à maîtriser ? Quelles métamorphoses subissent alors un homme et une femme uniquement concernés, jusque-là, par leur seule passion ?

About the author

Born in 1866 in Bromley, England, to a poor family, Herbert George Wells began as an apprentice at the age of 14, but educated himself on his own, received a scholarship (1884), and specialized in biology at the University of London, from which he graduated in 1888.

Having become a teacher, but still without money, he will ask journalism for additional resources.

His first book is a work of biology, his second a novel: La Machine à explorer le temps (1895), which was an immediate success.

One of the pioneers, with Jules Verne, of the novel of anticipation, Wells is also a polemist, believing in progress through science.

These trends are reflected throughout a work that includes nearly 50 novels, tales, short stories and essays.

H. G. Wells died in London on August 13, 1946.
