The story of a simple soul catapulated out of his station in life. Young Artie Kipps is desperate to escape a living death in the retail trade. Embarking on self-improvement, he allows first a lady, then an unexpected legacy, to turn his head - until, paradoxically, 'ruin' saves him. H.G. Wells pokes fun at a whole gallery of social pretention - from the savoir faire of high society, through the pomp and gravitas of playwrights and socialists, to middle class snobbery - in his witty portrait of a draper's assistant bent on acquiring refinement

Wells is often referred to as the "father of science fiction," with some of his works being foundational for the genre. His imaginative storytelling and thought-provoking ideas have made him a lasting figure in literature, with his works still widely read and adapted to this day.
