Twelve Stories and a Dream

By: Wells, H. G.

In Twelve stories and a Dream, the reader will find a surprising Wells extending your search to the fantastic and humorous to the motley recreation of a common bond that unites characters: the emergence in their lives an unusual event, strange, that leads to the most unexpected and hilarious situations... the rogue who becomes the god of a tribe of savages, the phlegmatic Englishman surprised by a ghost in practices 'round', the psychic researcher whose body is kidnapped by a being from another dimension, the amazing effects of a drug called the "new gas", to the strenuous efforts of the obese Mr. Pyecraft to lose weight...In truth the mastery of flying was the work of thousands of men-this man a suggestion and that an experiment, until at last only one vigorous intellectual effort was needed to finish the work. But the inexorable injustice of the popular mind has decided that of all these thousands, one man, and that a man who never flew, should be chosen as the discoverer, just as it has chosen to honour Watt as the discoverer of steam and Stephenson of the steam-engine.
