Beschrijving

Dive into the whimsical and heartfelt journey of Mr. Polly, a man who, feeling stifled by the monotony of his conventional life, decides to take a bold leap and transform everything. H.G. Wells, drawing inspiration from his own early experiences as the son of a struggling shopkeeper and a draper’s apprentice, paints a vivid picture of the lower middle class in his novels. Works like The Wheels of Chance (1896), Kipps (1905), and The History of Mr. Polly (1910) capture the frustrations of those trapped in tedious jobs, while showcasing their courageous attempts to break free. H.G. Wells (1866-1946), a prolific writer known for his contributions to history, fiction, and politics, was also a dedicated socialist. Join us as we explore this delightful tale of rebellion and renewal, narrated by Adrian Praetzellis.
