“The Star” by H. G. Wells
Season Two of Autumn Reads begins beneath a darkening sky.
In this premiere episode, Autumn reads “The Star”, a haunting and prophetic short story by H. G. Wells, first published in 1897. As a mysterious celestial object draws closer to Earth, Wells shifts the focus away from spectacle and toward perspective, reminding us how small human concerns can become when viewed against the vast machinery of the cosmos.
Calm, atmospheric, and quietly devastating, The Star blends early science fiction with philosophical reflection, capturing Wells at his most elegant and unsettling. Autumn’s intimate narration invites listeners to slow down, listen closely, and experience the story as it was meant to be heard: one voice, one text, one moment suspended in time.
Welcome back to Autumn Reads. Season Two begins now, with our eyes turned upward.
