The Time Machine
(eBook)
Description
The Time Machine is a science fiction novella by H. G. Wells, written as a frame narrative. The work is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposely and selectively forwards or backwards in time. The story goes like this: So, begins the Time Traveller's astonishing firsthand account of his journey 800,000 years beyond his own era. With a speculative leap that still fires the imagination, Wells sends his brave explorer to face a future burdened with our greatest hopes and our darkest fears. A pull of the Time Machine lever propels him to the age of a slowly dying Earth. There he discovers two bizarre races, who not only symbolize the duality of human nature, but also offer a terrifying portrait of the men of tomorrow. Wells' expert storytelling and provocative insight into the book will continue to enthrall readers for generations to come.
