The Time Machine

Viac o knihe

The time machine is a science fiction novel by H.G. WELLS, published in 1895 and written as a frame narrative. The narrator feels differently, but the overwhelming message of the book can be construed as a warning against hubris and faith in progress. One important theme is that of class conflict. When the machine stops, in the year 802,701 AD, he finds himself in a paradisiacal world of small humanoid creatures called Eloi. They are frail and peaceful, and give him fruit to eat. He explores the area, but when he returned he finds that his time machine is gone.
