Produktinformationen zu „The Food Of The Gods And How It Came To Earth (ePub)“
Science fiction author H. G. Wells wrote a book titled The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth.
In Book I, two new characters are introduced: Professor Redwood, who becomes interested in "Growth" after analysing response times, and Mr. Bensington, a research chemist with a focus on "the More Toxic Alkaloids." After a year of investigation and experimentation, he discovers how to produce what he initially refers to as "the Food of the Gods" but eventually refers to as Herakleophorbia IV. The material is given to kids, who then balloon to huge sizes.
Albert Edward Caddles, Mrs. Skinner's grandson, is described in Book II as becoming into a symbol of "the arrival of Bigness in the world." Wells uses the opportunity to parody the Church of England clergy and the conservative rural nobility while illustrating life in a poor tiny community.
Caddles, the protagonist, decides to see the world rather than spend his life working in a chalk pit. The relationship between the nameless princess and the young giant Redwood is sensitively depicted in Book III's epilogue. Just as Caterham undertakes a campaign to subdue the giants, their romance begins to flourish. The planet is on the edge of a protracted conflict between the "small people" and the Children of the Food as the book comes to an end.
