Summary

"The Time Machine," first published in 1895, is one of the most important novels in the history of world science fiction literature. The plot focuses on the fate of the scientist, the Time Traveler, who, with the help of a self-constructed device, travels to the distant future, where he encounters two distinct human races–the Eloi and the Morlocks.

The author, as in most of his novels, raises the question of the vision of human development, not only in the scientific-technical context, but above all in the social context. He combines the issues of evolutionary theory with the vision of class struggle, social inequalities, and feminism. Debuting as well as remarkably visionary, disturbing, and timeless–one of the most famous novels by Herbert George Wells.
