In the Days of the Comet: A Visionary Tale of Love, Transformation, and a Changed World

What if a single cosmic event could change the heart of humanity forever? In In the Days of the Comet, H. G. Wells crafts a sweeping vision of personal awakening and global transformation. The story follows William Leadford, a young man consumed by jealousy, anger, and despair in early 20th-century England. Just as his life spirals toward a violent act, a green-hued comet passes near Earth—releasing a mysterious gas that alters human consciousness itself.

What follows is not destruction, but a miraculous rebirth of empathy, reason, and compassion across the globe. Wells weaves together romance, social commentary, and visionary speculation, exploring how love, morality, and civilization might flourish in a transformed world. First published in 1906, this is one of Wells' most profound and optimistic works.
