Story
"The Lord of the Dynamos" is a British short story by H.G. Wells. It was originally published in the Pall Mall Budget (6 September 1894), and then included in the collection The Stolen Bacillus and Other Incidents, published by Methuen & Co. in 1895, and subsequently in his Complete Short Stories. It deals with what Wells describes as "certain odd possibilities of the negro mind brought into abrupt contact with the crown of our civilisation" and the narration displays racist attitudes common among British society of the time, in addition to the overt thuggish racism of the character Holroyd.

Story
Holroyd is an unpleasant man who is in charge of a power station supporting an underground electric railway. Azuma-zi is a stranger who arrives from the East and soon finds a job at this power station. Holroyd starts to pick on Azuma-zi, lecturing him against religion and describing the dynamo as the only god. Soon enough, Azuma-zi begins to worship the dynamo, with disastrous consequences. H. G. Wells’ short story "The Lord of the Dynamos" describes a clash of cultures in a hard, industrial setting.

Story
El encargado jefe de las tres dinamos que zumbaban y rechinaban en Camberwell para mantener en marcha el ferrocarril eléctrico procedía del condado de York, y se llamaba James Holroyd. Era un electricista práctico, pero aficionado al whisky, un bruto pelirrojo y pesado con una dentadura irregular. Dudaba de la existencia de Dios, pero aceptaba el ciclo de Carnot y había leído a Shakespeare, encontrándolo flojo en química. Su ayudante procedía del misterioso Este y se llamaba Azuma-zi.
