Time Machine
HG Wells (1866-1946)
The Time Machine was first published in 1894, it was brought out as a book the next year under its current name and sold more than six thousand copies in a few months.
He was just twenty-seven-years-old then.
I liked the novel's appeal lies in its attempt to tell us what will become of human beings in the distant future as we could not see the future in 100-200 years' time.
it make the central character of a time traveler who can transport himself back and forth in time with the aid of a machine he invented, he is able to explore many of the themes that obsessed him, including evolution, and the fantasy of time journey, where he can roam the world forever.
He described the future world of the effete Eloi and the cannibalistic Morlocks and the world beyond that in which all semblance of human life has been erased,
He illustrates what he believes may very well be the fate of humanity.
