Mr. Ledbetter's Vacation by H. G. Wells can be viewed as a representation of the intersection between the mundane and the uncanny, wherein the protagonist's seemingly familiar experience of a holiday abroad is disrupted by a series of events that are surreal in nature. Through this narrative, Wells critiques the idea of an idealistic escape from reality, and ultimately demonstrates that such occurrences can never truly be divorced from their contextual environment.
