Guests of the ingenious inventor listen in disbelief as he recounts his experiences: he claims to have traveled eight hundred thousand years into the future with a time machine. He then describes the lives of two species there, the childlike Eloi and the sinister Morlocks, who dwell underground, oppressed by the ruling race above in the greenery. Or is it not as he says, but entirely different? The visitors listen intently as the time traveler reveals the whole truth. With H. G. Wells' Time Machine, readers journey into a fantastic utopia of humanity's future.
