Inhaltsangabe

Necropolis Press Presents Classroom Classics, featuring: "The Time Machine" by H.G. Wells -- With "The Chronic Argonauts" and "The Grey Man" --- "The Time Machine", in telling the story of a scientist’s voyage of discovery into the future, reveals H.G. Wells’ deep-seated criticism of the dehumanizing industrial world of his own era, as well as his idealist utopian dream of a future utopian system that might eliminate the ills and injustices of Humankind. Yet, it also shows the credence Wells gave to the philosophy espoused by other “Dying Earth” writers, who theorized that the distant future would feature the end of civilization, a result of entropy and socio-political collapse. All of these come crashing together in The Time Machine to produce a work that significantly influenced future writers of time travel, utopian, dystopian, and Dying Earth literature. -- Features: Original Cover Art, Contextual Introduction, Annotations, Study Questions, Cover Art by Lucas Heinemann, Cover Design by Teresa Johnston
