Background: Herbert George Wells (21 September 1866 - 13 August 1946), usually referred to as H. G. Wells, was an English writer. He was prolific in many genres, writing dozens of novels, short stories, and works of social commentary, satire, biography, and autobiography, including even two books on war games. He is now best remembered for his science fiction novels and is often called a "father of science fiction", along with Jules Verne and Hugo Gernsback. During his own lifetime, however, he was most prominent as a forward-looking, even prophetic social critic who devoted his literary talents to the development of a progressive vision on a global scale.
Context: In 1891, Wells married his cousin Isabel Mary Wells. The couple agreed to separate in 1894 when he fell in love with one of his students, Amy Catherine Robbins (later known as Jane), with whom he moved to Woking, Surrey in May 1895. They lived in a rented house, 'Lynton', (now No.141) Maybury Road in the town centre for just under 18 months and married at St Pancras register office in October 1895. His short period in Woking was perhaps the most creative and productive of his whole writing career, for while there he planned and wrote The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine, completed The Island of Dr Moreau, wrote and published The Wonderful Visit and The Wheels of Chance, and began writing two other early books, When The Sleeper Wakes and Love and Mr Lewisham.  In late summer 1896, Wells and Jane moved to a larger house in Worcester Park, near Kingston upon Thames for two years until his poor health took them to Sandgate, near Folkestone, where in 1901 he constructed a large family home: Spade House. He had two sons with Jane: George Philip (known as "Gip") in 1901 (died 1985) and Frank Richard in 1903 (died 1982).  With his wife Jane's consent, Wells had affairs with a number of women, including the American birth control activist Margaret Sanger, adventurer and writer Odette Keun, Soviet spy Moura Budberg and novelist Elizabeth von Arnim. In 1909, he had a daughter, Anna-Jane, with the writer Amber Reeves, whose parents, William and Maud Pember Reeves, he had met through the Fabian Society; and in 1914, a son, Anthony West (1914-1987), by the novelist and feminist Rebecca West, 26 years his junior. After Beatrice Webb voiced disapproval of Wells' "sordid intrigue" with the daughter of veteran Fabian Sidney Olivier, he responded by lampooning Beatrice Webb and her husband Sidney Webb in his 1911 novel The New Machiavelli as 'Altiora and Oscar Bailey', a pair of short-sighted, bourgeois manipulators. In Experiment in Autobiography (1934), Wells wrote: "I was never a great amorist, though I have loved several people very deeply". David Lodge's novel A Man of Parts (2011) - a 'narrative based on factual sources' (author's note) - gives a convincing and generally sympathetic account of Wells's relations with the women mentioned above, and others. Director Simon Wells (born 1961), the author's great-grandson, was a consultant on the future scenes in Back to the Future Part II (1989). CANNOTANSWER

Bakgrund: Herbert George Wells (21 september 1866 – 13 augusti 1946), vanligen kallad H. G. Wells, var en engelsk författare. Han var produktiv inom många genrer, och skrev dussintals romaner, noveller och verk av sociala kommentarer, satir, biografi och självbiografi, däribland även två böcker om krigsspel. Han är numera bäst ihågkommen för sina science fiction-romaner och kallas ofta för en "far till science fiction", tillsammans med Jules Verne och Hugo Gernsback. Under sin egen livstid var han dock mest framstående som en framåtblickande, även profetisk samhällskritiker som ägnade sina litterära talanger åt utvecklingen av en progressiv vision i global skala. Sammanhang: År 1891 gifte sig Wells med sin kusin Isabel Mary Wells. Paret gick med på att skiljas 1894 då han förälskade sig i en av sina elever, Amy Catherine Robbins (senare känd som Jane), med vilken han flyttade till Woking, Surrey i maj 1895. De bodde i ett hyrt hus, 'Lynton', (numera nr 141) Maybury Road i stadskärnan i knappt 18 månader och gifte sig på St Pancras registerkontor i oktober 1895. Hans korta period i Woking var kanske den mest kreativa och produktiva av hela hans författarkarriär, för medan han där planerade och skrev The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine, avslutade The Island of Dr Moreau, skrev och publicerade The Wonderful Visit and The Wheels of Chance, och började skriva två andra tidiga böcker, When The Sleeper Wakes and Love och Mr Lewisham. På sensommaren 1896 flyttade Wells och Jane till ett större hus i Worcester Park, nära Kingston upon Thames i två år tills hans dåliga hälsa tog dem till Sandgate, nära Folkestone, där han 1901 konstruerade ett stort familjehem: Spade House. Han fick två söner med Jane: George Philip (känd som "Gip") 1901 (död 1985) och Frank Richard 1903 (död 1982). Med sin hustru Janes samtycke hade Wells affärer med en rad kvinnor, bland annat den amerikanska födelsekontrollaktivisten Margaret Sanger, äventyraren och författaren Odette Keun, den sovjetiske spionen Moura Budberg och romanförfattaren Elizabeth von Arnim. År 1909 fick han en dotter, Anna-Jane, tillsammans med författaren Amber Reeves, vars föräldrar, William och Maud Pember Reeves, han hade träffat genom Fabian Society; och 1914, en son, Anthony West (1914-1987), av romanförfattaren och feministen Rebecca West, 26 år hans junior. Efter att Beatrice Webb uttryckt ogillande för Wells "sorgliga intriger" med veteranen Fabian Sidney Oliviers dotter svarade han med att lamslå Beatrice Webb och hennes make Sidney Webb i sin roman The New Machiavelli från 1911 som 'Altiora och Oscar Bailey', ett par kortsynta, borgerliga manipulatorer. I Experiment in Autobiography (1934) skrev Wells: "Jag var aldrig någon stor amorist, fast jag har älskat flera människor mycket djupt". David Lodges roman A Man of Parts (2011) - en 'berättande baserad på faktakällor' (författarens not) - ger en övertygande och allmänt sympatisk skildring av Wells relationer med de ovan nämnda kvinnorna, med flera. Regissören Simon Wells (född 1961), författarens barnbarnsbarn, var konsult på framtidsscenerna i Tillbaka till framtiden del II (1989). CANNOTANSWER Fråga: vad gjorde han på fritiden?.
