520 _a"Select Conversations with an Uncle (Now Extinct) and Two Other Reminiscences" by H. G. Wells is a collection published in 1895. Wells's first book presents witty dialogues between a young man named George and his affluent uncle recently returned from South Africa. Through twelve conversations, they explore fashion, social discomfort, ideals, photography, art, engagement, marriage, and other aspects of Victorian life. Two additional pieces examine aestheticism and physiognomy, offering satirical commentary on contemporary society and manners. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
