The Time Machine by H. G. Wells

Description

The Time Machine is a book by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895. The Time Machine follows an unnamed protagonist known as the Time Traveller, who invents a machine capable of traveling through time. He gathers a group of friends and explains the concept, but they are skeptical. To prove his invention works, the Time Traveller embarks on a journey to the distant future. He arrives in the year 802,701 AD, where he discovers a seemingly utopian society inhabited by a gentle and childlike race called the Eloi. However, he soon realizes that this idyllic world hides a dark secret: the Eloi are preyed upon by the Morlocks, a subterranean race that lives in fearsome darkness. As the Time Traveller explores this future world, he uncovers the disturbing truth about the fate of humanity. He eventually returns to his own time to share his experiences, only to vanish once more, leaving his friends — and the reader — questioning what lies ahead for both him and the future of mankind. The Time Machine is a pioneering work of science fiction that explores themes of social decay, the consequences of technology, and the passage of time.
