Through a Window

Herbert George Wells (1866 – 1946) was a prolific English writer of stories and novels, and is credited as the father of science fiction.

"Through a Window" is the story of an invalid whose entire entertainment consists of watching the events outside his window, which looks out onto a river. He watches all the boats as they pass and longs for anything unusual to happen. Then one day just about the most jaw-dropping set of events imaginable happens right outside his window..."
