Adrift in a dinghy, Edward Prendick, the single survivor from the good ship Lady Vain, is rescued by a vessel carrying an unusual cargo—a menagerie of savage animals. Nursed to recovery by their keeper Montgomery, who gives him dark medicine that tastes of blood, Prendick soon finds himself stranded upon an uncharted island in the Pacific with his rescuer and the beasts. There, he meets the sinister Dr. Moreau—a brilliant scientist whose notorious experiments in vivisection have caused him to abandon the civilized world. It soon becomes clear that he has continued to develop these experiments with truly horrific results.

评分先于现代生命科学的作品,同Mary Shelley一样,mad scientist, vivisection. 探讨科学的界限,人的本质,等等主题。
评分Wells大神就不说了。真是好牛X的introduction啊。。by Margret Atwood。连 “Moreau, Montgomery, M'Ling == the unholy trinity(father, son, spirit)” 这种七段变形的妖物都出来了。。
评分真心受够了Wells 这种grotesque又thrilling的风格……各种不和
评分先于现代生命科学的作品,同Mary Shelley一样,mad scientist, vivisection. 探讨科学的界限,人的本质,等等主题。
