Description
Description
“Looking at these stars suddenly dwarfed my own troubles and all the gravities of terrestrial life.” Where did the idea of time travelling originate? How did the idea of transcending unseen realms of universe take over popular culture?An endearing story of a time traveller’s journey into the future. A pull of the lever and the machine sends him to the year 802,701, there he discovers two bizarre races―the ethereal Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks―who not only symbolize the duality of human nature but show the terrifying reality of the men of tomorrow as well. Here, his machine is stolen, will he be able to get back?The traveller’s journey shows him a reality that is more dystopic than the present, making him realise that some questions are better left unanswered. The modern world’s fascination with time travelling can be traced back to this original story by H. G Wells, considered the father of science fiction.
