So, in the end, above ground you must have the Haves, pursuing pleasure and comfort and beauty, and below ground the Have-nots, the Workers getting continually adapted to the conditions of their labour.
The Time Machine was H.G. Well's debut novel - an astonishing dystopian tale which earnt Wells' his reputation as the 'father of science-fiction'.
When the Time Traveller travels to the year 802,701 AD, he finds a world drastically divided. Two races have descended from humans - the elven Eloi who live a peaceful but empty existence, and the mysterious subterranean Morlocks who are deeply feared by the Eloi. After losing his time machine, the traveller must journey through a network of Morlock tunnels to recover his device and return to his own world. But not all is as it seems...
The Time Machine is brought to you here alongside a selection of Wells' fantastic short stories, including classics such as 'The Country of the Blind' and 'The Door in the Wall' and 'The Stolen Bacillus'. These stories offer both magnificent adventures and poignant explorations of ethics in the face of scientific progress.
