A Twentieth Century Homunculus (Fantasy and Horror Classics)
ByPublisher Description
A groundbreaking, yet forbidden, experiment in manufactured life achieves the unimaginable: the creation of a diminutive, artificial human. But the triumph of science quickly gives way to terror as the homunculus—a sentient specimen—refuses to remain a passive object of study.
The ambition to play God has unleashed a crisis that threatens the creators, forcing them to confront the terrifying consequences of bringing life into the world without fully understanding its cost.
From David H. Keller, a pioneering psychiatrist whose complex and literary work foreshadowed the Golden Age of Science Fiction, comes a chilling cautionary tale about scientific ambition run amok. A Twentieth Century Homunculus plunges into the ethical abyss of creation.
This essential classic of early science fiction is a must-read for those who love stories that blend intellectual dread with supernatural horror. Discover the dark side of progress and the creature that refuses to be contained.
