What happens when one of the greatest minds of his time turns his gaze on the chaos of the present? In A Year of Prophesying, H. G. Wells steps away from fiction to offer a piercing and passionate commentary on the state of the world during a pivotal moment in history. Written in 1923, this collection of essays captures a turbulent postwar era marked by political unrest, economic upheaval, and the struggle to build a better future. Wells, ever the visionary, brings clarity and urgency to a wide range of issues from the rise of nationalism and the failures of leadership to the need for global cooperation and social reform. With insight sharpened by experience and a deep belief in progress, he critiques the old world while urging readers to imagine a new one built on reason and unity. More than just predictions, these essays are calls to action. Wells challenges complacency and warns of dangers ahead, while still daring to hope for a more rational and humane world. A Year of Prophesying is a revealing look at Wells not as a novelist, but as a public thinker confronting the complexities of his agemany of which still echo today.
