The Time Machine
In The Time Machine, science opens the door to eternity—and what lies beyond isn’t what man expected. A brilliant inventor journeys hundreds of thousands of years into the future, only to find a world divided between the gentle Eloi and the monstrous Morlocks. As he uncovers the grim fate of humanity, wonder turns to horror. Both thrilling adventure and philosophical fable, Wells’s classic reminds us that progress without purpose may lead us back into the dark.
