Time Machine
Book • 2008
H. G.
Wells' 'The Time Machine' follows an inventor who travels to the distant future and discovers a society divided into two distinct groups: the Eloi and the Morlocks.
The Eloi are beautiful but passive and indolent creatures living on the surface, while the Morlocks are subterranean workers who maintain the machinery that sustains the Eloi.
The Time Traveller gradually realizes that the Morlocks are exploiting and preying upon the Eloi.
The novel explores themes of social class, evolution, and the potential consequences of technological progress.
It serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked advancement and the importance of maintaining a just and equitable society.
