About this listen

H. G. Wells' novel of 1895 popularised the idea of vehicular time travel in this classic sci-fi tale.

The eponymous hero finds himself in the land of the Eloi and the Morlocks. In some ways these encounters foreshadow another, less remote future which George Orwell conjures in Nineteen Eighty-Four: that of the nascent rift between the proles and the party elite.

This is a gripping story delivering not merely an imaginative relocation of late Victorian lust for adventure and scientific knowledge but also Wells' warning about politics and society. The endtimes of the Earth and universe are hauntingly evoked in the final chapters.
