The Time Machine

Any real body must have extension in four directions: it must have Length Breadth Thickness and Duration. But through a natural infirmity of the flesh which I will explain to you in a moment we incline to overlook this fact. There are really four dimensions three which we call the three planes of Space and a fourth Time. ― H.G. Wells The Time Machine The Time Machine (1895) by H. G. Wells recounts the story of an eminent scientist the Time Traveller who travels into time with the help of his intricate ivory crystal and brass apparatus and finds himself in the year 802701. The world he finds is inhabited by two races-the feeble inane useless Eloi who are dependent on food clothing and shelter from the subterranean Morlocks who prey on Eloi. Amidst these strange beings his life takes on various adventures until he returns home after much struggle but only to prepare for his next voyage in the future.
