The Wonderful Visit

In 'The Wonderful Visit,' H.G. Wells transports readers to a quaint English village disrupted by the sudden arrival of an ethereal angel.

Through the angel's innocent eyes, Wells masterfully critiques social norms and prejudices. This whimsical yet profound tale blends fantasy and satire, offering a fresh perspective on the human condition.
