๐ About this Book
A Victorian scientist known only as the Time Traveller invents a machine capable of carrying him through time and journeys more than 800,000 years into the future.
There he discovers a world divided between two very different groups: the gentle, childlike Eloi, who live above ground, and the mysterious Morlocks, who inhabit the darkness beneath the earth.
What first appears to be a peaceful future slowly reveals something far more disturbing.
First published in 1895, The Time Machine is one of the earliest and most influential works of science fiction, exploring class, evolution, humanity, and what civilization might eventually become.

โค๏ธ Why Sumaia Recommends It
This is such an interesting classic because the story is short, but the ideas behind it are huge.
I love how H.G. Wells uses time travel not just as an adventure, but as a way to question society, class differences, progress, and whether humanity is actually improving at all.
It is imaginative, slightly unsettling, and surprisingly easy to read for a book written more than a century ago.
