The Time Machine

The novel, The Time Machine, gave inspiration to science fiction to the writers in the last century and this century. When The Time Machine begins, the novel accelerates into a desperate struggle for survival in a bizarre and twisted future.

The main character, the Time Traveler, makes a massive claim to his colleagues in his own time on the idea of time travel. With his knowledge of technology, the Time Traveler tries to prove his ideas and jumps to the year 802,701 A.D. The setting of the story looks alien to the Time Traveler as he finds the decaying of society with 2 groups of devolved humans. The Eloi show interest in the Time Traveler and welcome him to eat and sleep with them. The nocturnal Morlocks come out of their machine filled caves to feast on whatever meat they find. The Time Traveler becomes lost in this time after his machine is lost to the Morlocks. The Time Traveler finds himself alone until he meets a Eloi named Weena. Though a language barrier prevents communication, the Time Traveler lets Weena cling to him as he works to find a way to his time machine.

The Time Machine changes from the current of his time and creates a story that helped change and create a entire genre of books. I recommend The Time Machine for any science fiction fan or someone wanting a book that drifts from their normal genre.
