About this book
Meet Edward George Eden, a young medical student who doesn’t have much money. He is approached by an older man called Egbert Elvesham, who wants to give his fortune to someone before he dies. Since he has no heir, he offers to leave it to Eden, as long as the youngest also takes Egbert’s name. But terrible repercussions hide behind this tempting offer. The quest for immortality has been one of the most famous topics in literature. H. G. Wells reinvents it, adding more science to this theme, while also preserving its tragic aspects. Don’t miss out on this short story that will remind you of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson!
