First Men in the Moon
Book • 2008
In 'The First Men in the Moon', H. G. Wells crafts a tale of adventure and discovery as two men, Mr. Bedford and Mr. Cavor, journey to the Moon using a gravity-defying substance called Cavorite.
Upon arrival, they encounter the Selenites, an insect-like civilization living beneath the lunar surface.
The novel explores themes of exploration, societal structure, and human nature.
It is both a fantasy of space travel and a satire of turn-of-the-century Britain.
