The Time MachineH.G. Wells was one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. Wells was a prolific author in many genres including history, politics, and social commentary, but it is his science fiction novels that he is best remembered for. Classics such as The Time Machine, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The Invisible Man, and The War of the Worlds earned Wells the nomination for the Nobel Prize on four different occasions. The Time Machine, published in 1895, is a science fiction novel that centers around a vehicle that allows people to travel through time to both the future and the past. Through this book Wells became the first person to popularize the concept of time travel and it has been adapted to film and television shows numerous times. |
