Regardless of when this was written I found the random use of the n-slur repulsing. I know people argue that it's representative of the beliefs at the time and that people insist it can has a valid place in literature, but I found it entirely unnecessary to advance the plot or character development and it made me google more about any racism present in HG Wells' other works. Spoiler Alert: there are many anti-Semitic, pro eugenics and horrifying racists statements and ideas expounded upon in other stories.
