Description
The Coming Race by Edward Bulwer-Lytton is an evolutionary fantasy that explores a near-future world characterized by female dominance and vast technological progress. First published in 1871, this seminal science fiction text draws upon ideas of Darwinism to create a unique vision of the future. Scholarly notes and an introduction accompany this Wesleyan edition, providing context for Bulwer-Lytton's interest in the occult and placing the work within its intellectual and literary framework. This edition offers a fresh perspective on a thought-provoking novel that continues to be studied by contemporary scholars. With 70 pages of compact text, this paperback edition is an affordable introduction to Bulwer-Lytton's imaginative vision of a future world.
