The Time Machine

audioboek en e-book


ā€œIā€™ve had a most amazing time....ā€

So begins the Time Travellerā€™s astonishing firsthand account of his journey 800,000 years beyond his own eraā€”and the story that launched H.G. Wellsā€™s successful career and earned him his reputation as the father of science fiction. 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 Machineā€™s lever propels him to the age of a slowly dying Earth. There he discovers two bizarre racesā€”the ethereal Eloi and the subterranean Morlocksā€”who not only symbolize the duality of human nature, but offer a terrifying portrait of the men of tomorrow as well. Published in 1895, this masterpiece of invention captivated readers on the threshold of a new century. Thanks to Wellsā€™s expert storytelling and provocative insight, The Time Machinewill continue to enthrall readers for generations to come.
