О книге: The Time Machine (Wells H. G., Baer Greg); Signet classics, 2014

So begins the Time Travellers astonishing firsthand account of his journey eight hundred thousand years beyond his own era--and the story that launched H. G. Wellss successful career. With a speculative leap that still fires the imagination, Wells sends his brave explorer to face a future burdened with our greatest hopes...and our darkest fears. A pull of the Time Machines lever propels him to the age of a slowly dying Earth. There he discovers two bizarre races--the ethereal Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks--who not only symbolize the duality of human nature, but offer a terrifying portrait of tomorrow as well.

Published in 1895, this masterpiece of invention captivated readers on the threshold of a new century. Thanks to Wellss expert storytelling and provocative insight, The Time Machine will continue to enthrall readers for generations to come.

With an Introduction by Greg Bear

and an Afterword by Simon J. James
