Clearly ahead of his time, H. G. Wells gave his great gifts to the world with his classic works, including this short story. "The Man Who Could Work Miracles," gives the reader a fantastic tale of phenomena. Enjoy Well's amazing imagination as you discover what it may be like if the impossible became possible. *Classic cream color pages* *Matte cover* -Richard Foster Classics Collection-
A miracle is something contrary to the course of nature done by the power of will. What would you do if you found you could affect miracles? This is the story of one George McWhirter Fotheringay who had to face just such a situation.
Is it possible that someone will try to take advantage of the situation? And what may be the results? The hell you say.
The writing and timing are pure Wells. And you can anticipate the outcome but not the details. The story has been retold but never better told.
A close rival is "The Lathe of Heaven: A Novel" by Ursula K. Le Guin
