The Time Machine is a post-apocalyptic science fiction novella by H. G. Wells, published in 1895.
One of the most renowned works of science fiction, The Time Machine reflects on the adventures of The Time Traveller-a man who constructs a machine which allows him to explore what the future has to offer. As he travels to as far as 802,701 AD, The Time Traveller encounters a world dominated by two types of creatures- beautiful and fragile Eloi and repulsive and brutal Morlocks. His journey then turns quickly from a series of observations into a dangerous quest to return back home, as he realizes that Morlocks have stolen his machine.
A dystopian novel that fascinates the readers from the very beginning, The Time Machine both reflects Wells's sceptical outlook on the future of the Late Victorian England and makes the reader meditate on the future of our civilization.

H.G.Wells (1866-1946) anses som den moderna science fiction-romanens skapare. Med romaner som Tidmaskinen, Världarnas krig, Doktor Moreaus ö och Den osynlige mannen blev Wells på 1890-talet en av världens mest lästa författare och Jules Vernes främste konkurrent som framtidsskildrare och teknikoptimist. Wells framtidsromaner har också blivit stora framgångar på vita duken.
