About this listen
H. G. Wells first published The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth in 1904. He called it “a fantasia on the change of scale in human affairs… I had hit upon [the idea] while working out the possibilities of the near future in a book of speculations called Anticipations (1901).”
This novel is about a group of scientists that invent food that accelerates the growth of children turning them into giants upon becoming adults. There have been many B-movie adaptations. This is Wells at his finest with a science experiment gone wrong.
