Summary "Mr Britling pääsee selvyyteen I" by H. G. Wells is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of personal identity and cultural contrast through the eyes of Mr. Direck, an American visitor to England, and Mr. Britling, an English thinker and writer. The narrative delves into their conversations and interactions that showcase the differences and similarities between American and British life, as well as societal changes during the period experienced during and after World War I. The opening of the novel introduces Mr. Direck as he arrives in England, filled with a mix of excitement and uncertainty about his journey. He is eager to connect with Mr. Britling, whom he admires, and to explore his family's roots in Essex. As Mr. Direck travels towards Matching's Easy, he observes the charming English countryside and reflects on the cultural differences he encounters, showcasing his awe and humor regarding the quaintness of the local lifestyle. Upon arrival, he meets Mr. Britling in a more relaxed and whimsical manner than expected, highlighting the unexpected character of both the Englishman and the rural setting.
