Описание и характеристики

So begins the Time Travellers astonishing firsthand account of his journey eight hundred thousand years beyond his own era--and the story that launched H. G. Wellss successful career. 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 Machines lever propels him to the age of a slowly dying Earth. There he discovers two bizarre races--the ethereal Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks--who not only symbolize the duality of human nature, but offer a terrifying portrait of tomorrow as well.

Published in 1895, this masterpiece of invention captivated readers on the threshold of a new century. Thanks to Wellss expert storytelling and provocative insight, The Time Machine will continue to enthrall readers for generations to come.
