- W2599790374 abstract "After publishing his experimental and intellectually far-reaching first three novels, The Time Machine (1895), The Wonderful Visit (1895), and The Island of Dr. Moreau (1896), H.G. Wells published The Wheels of Chance: A Bicycling Idyll (1896). Readers who had come to expect from Wells harrowing escapes from troglodytic Morlocks thousands of years in the future, an angel falling to earth after being shot by a vicar, and a deranged, sadistic vivisectionist creating human–animal hybrid ‘Beast Folk’ on a remote tropical island found in The Wheels of Chance a rather less dynamic story: the tale of one Mr Hoopdriver, a London draper’s assistant who saves his money and buys a second-hand bicycle then takes it on a holiday tour of southern England. Hoopdriver rides from London into the country, visits some quaint villages and stays in some charming inns, walks barefoot in a stream, picks flowers, observes a weasel, and befriends a fellow cyclist, a young woman whom he helps to escape an undesirable suitor. He then pedals back to his job and his everyday life in London.1" @default.
