About the book

A young naturalist, Edward Prendick, is shipwrecked and finds himself stranded on a lonely island deep in the heart of the Pacific Ocean. The island is dominated by the sinister Dr. Moreau, once a famous London scientist, and now deeply engaged in the creation of what he calls Beast Men. The entire island is populated by monstrous creatures of his making, half animal and half human, over which Dr. Moreau wields his frightening power. But Dr. Moreau's greatest fear is that one day the Beast Men will taste blood!THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU was written in the same period when H.G. Wells produced THE WAR OF THE WORLDS and THE TIME MACHINE, stories that have become classics. The text for this book is a facsimile reprint of the 1896 U.S. edition.

Ein Schiffsunglück, eine einsame Insel, ein geheimnisvoller Doktor, grausame Experimente, seltsame Kreaturen - einmal umrühren und fertig ist ein erstaunlich zeitloser Klassiker. Und im Hintergrund schwebt die Frage, was einen Menschen zu einem Menschen macht.

Just amazing.
I love the way Wells picks up the topics he wants to discuss and shows the reader clearly where the issue lies. This book as a statement towards animal cruelty by showing off humanly and animalistic cruelty is amazing to show the aftermath of animal experiments. Especially written in a time as H. G. Wells lived. I love this author and I loved this book.

There are some more lengthy parts, but it's quite a good story nonetheless, exploring the boundaries between human and animal (or monster).
