In The Days Of The Comet is a science fiction novel written by H.G. Wells. It tells the story of a man named William Leadford who, after inhaling a gas released by a passing comet, experiences a profound transformation in his perspective on life. He becomes disillusioned with the social and political structures of his time and begins to see the world in a new light. He falls in love with a woman named Nettie Stuart and together they embark on a journey of self-discovery and social upheaval. The novel explores themes of love, class struggle, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. It is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a unique perspective on the human condition.I thought the comet no more than a nuisance then because I wanted to talk of other matters. But Parload was full of it. My head was hot, I was feverish with interlacing annoyances and bitterness, I wanted to relieve my heart by some romantic rendering of my troubles -- and I gave but little heed to the things he told me. It was the first time I had heard of this new speck among the countless specks of heaven, and I did not care if I never heard of the thing again.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
