H. G. Wells
The Parkes Museum
Summary
"The Parkes Museum" by H. G. Wells is a short essay. H. G. Wells once different, humorous social satire and ironic.
By way of jest, my morning daily paper constantly includes in its menu of "To-day" the Parkes Museum, Margaret Street, adding, seductively, "free"; and no doubt many a festive Jonas Chuzzlewit has preened himself for a sight-seeing, and all unaware of the multitudes of Margaret Streets-surely only Charlottes of that ilk are more abundant-has started forth, he and his feminine, to find this Parkes Museum.
