H. G. Wells 2 hr 20 min read

Shipwrecked and rescued, a man is brought to a remote island where a brilliant, exiled surgeon is doing something unspeakable to the beasts.

This Hungarian edition presents H. G. Wells's 1896 'The Island of Doctor Moreau,' his savage masterpiece of vivisection, hubris, and the thin line between man and animal. Horrifying, profound, foundational. Read it for one of the greatest and darkest of all scientific romances, from the father of the genre.
