An instant sensation, it was meant as a commentary on Darwins theory of evolution, which H. G. Wells stoutly believed. The story centers on the depraved Dr. Moreau, who conducts unspeakable animal experiments on a remote tropical island, with hideous, humanlike results. Edward Prendick, an English-man whose misfortunes bring him to the island, is witness to the Beast Folks strange civilization and their eventual terrifying regression. While gene-splicing and bioengineering are common practices today, readers are still astounded at Wellss haunting vision and the ethical questions he raised a century before our time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819541233952,"sku":"NEW0375760962","price":11.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51ZpuuxEO1L.jpg?v=1781134094","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-island-of-dr-moreau-modern-library-classics-0375760962","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
