Wells Era: A New Account of Modernism

Why have literary critics and general readers alike neglected H. G. Wells, a major force in twentieth-century thought, and what have they missed in overlooking him? Come hear Professor of English and Comparative Literature Sarah Cole discuss Wells’ significance for modernism and for our understanding of 20th century intellectual life. She will make a case for revaluing this great, underrated writer and for placing him among more familiar modernists, such as Woolf, Joyce, and Lawrence.
