The Island of Doctor Moreau
by H. G. Wells
Philosophical, strange, and a little grotesque, The Island of Doctor Moreau by influential author H. G.

Here, Prendick is introduced to a grotesque, bestial servant named M'ling and several other animals that belong to Montgomery who are on their way to an unnamed island where Montgomery works. Once arrived, Prendick is not allowed to enter the island, but the natives take pity on him and introduce him to Doctor Moreau, a
