It might come as a surprise that one of the first sci-fi novels📚 written was not, in fact, Shelley’s Frankenstein or HG Wells’ The Time Machine, but the work of 13th Century Baghdad-based writer and physician, Zakariya al-Qazwini.

Awaj bin Anfaq is the story of a curious alien👽 who arrives on planet Earth🌍 to observe human behaviour and finds himself perplexed by the oddities of this apparently sophisticated species.
