About “The wonderful visit”
The Wonderful Visit is a 1895 novel by H. G. Wells. It features an angel who falls into the human world from the Land of Dreams. The angel serves as an external observer, offering an unbiased view of human society and its failings. The story begins when the Rev. Hilyer, a vicar and ornithologist, shoots a winged creature he believes to be a strange bird. He discovers it is an angel, which he then helps recover from its injuries. The angel’s idealistic perspective clashes with the realities of human behavior, forming the central theme of the novel. The book was well-received, with Joseph Conrad praising its imaginative approach in a personal letter to Wells.
