Il padre della fantascienza, Guardian The Time Machine, è la prima e più grande rappresentazione moderna del viaggio nel tempo. Vede uno scienziato vittoriano catapultarsi nell'anno 802.701 d.C., quando inizialmente è felice di scoprire che la sofferenza è stata sostituita da bellezza, appagamento e pace. Incantato all'inizio dagli Eloi, una specie di elfi discendente dagli umani, si rende presto conto che sono semplicemente i resti di una cultura un tempo grande, ora debole e infantilmente spaventata dal buio. Hanno tutte le ragioni per aver paura: nei profondi tunnel sotto il loro paradiso si nasconde un'altra razza, i sinistri Morlock. A cura di PATRIC K PARRINDER con un'introduzione di MARINA WARNER e note di STEVEN MCLEAN

H.G. Wells was a professional writer and journalist, who published more than a hundred books, including novels, histories, essays and programmes for world regeneration. Wells's prophetic imagination was first displayed in pioneering works of science fiction, but later he became an apostle of socialism, science and progress. His controversial views on sexual equality and the shape of a truly developed nation remain directly relevant to our world today. He was, in Bertrand Russell's words, 'an important liberator of thought and action'.
Marina Warner is a famed writer and critic. Patrick Parrinder has written on H.G. Wells, science fiction, James Joyce and the history of the English novel. Since 1986 he has been Professor of English at the University of Reading.
Steven McLean is Secretary of the H.G. Wells Society. He recently completed his PhD on H.G. Wells at the University of Sheffield.
