Обзор: Краткое содержание «Война миров»
Шедевр Герберта Уэллса о вторжении пришельцев вызвал массовую истерию, когда радиопостановка Орсона Уэллса 1938 года убедила слушателей в том, что марсиане высадились на Землю. Эта классика, которая никогда не переставала издаваться, повлияла на таких режиссеров, как Спилберг, и критикует империализм через призму завоевания Земли превосходящими существами.

Лучшие цитаты — Краткое содержание «Война миров»
No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own.
It was the beginning of the rout of civilization, of the massacre of mankind.
And scattered about it, some in their overturned war machines, some in the now rigid handling-machines, and a dozen of them stark and silent and laid in a row, were the Martians—dead!—slain by the putrefactive and disease bacteria against which their systems were unprepared; slain as the red weed was being slain; slain, after all man's devices had failed, by the humblest things that God in his wisdom has put upon this earth.
Humans went about their daily business with smug confidence.
The Martians have not come to communicate but to conquer.
