Shipwrecked and alone, Edward Prendick finds himself on a remote island ruled by the enigmatic Dr. Moreau. As Prendick uncovers the doctor’s twisted experiments, blending humans with animals, he’s drawn into a world of ethical horror. Wells’ haunting tale explores the boundaries of science and morality, leaving me questioning the nature of humanity. The vivid descriptions of the Beast Folk still give me chills, reminding us how thin the line between man and beast truly is.
I hope, or I could not live.
