The Time Machine (Signet Classics)

The Time Machine (Signet Classics)

The revolutionary novel that catapulted readersÂ into the future, from the father of science fiction, H.G. Wells.Â

â€œIâ€™ve had a most amazing time....â€
Â
So begins the Time Travellerâ€™s astonishing firsthand account of his journey eight hundred thousand years beyond his own eraâ€”and the story that launched H. G. Wellsâ€™s 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 Machineâ€™s lever propels him to the age of a slowly dying Earth. There he discovers two bizarre racesâ€”the ethereal Eloi and the subterranean Morlocksâ€”who not only symbolize the duality of human nature, but offer a terrifying portrait of tomorrow as well.Â
Â
Published in 1895, this masterpiece of invention captivated readers on the threshold of a new century. Thanks to Wellsâ€™s expert storytelling and provocative insight, The Time Machine will continue to enthrall readers for generations to come.
