H. G. Wells
A scientist and gentleman inventor in industrialized Victorian England claims to have irrefutable proof that time is not simply a concept - it's a whole other dimension. When he reveals the prototype of a time-traveling machine to his peers, he's met with skepticism at first...until he returns one week later, disheveled, bloody, and with a fantastic story to tell.
A cornerstone of speculative science fiction, The Time Machine launched the time-traveling genre, influenced generations of writers, and is recognized as a prescient vision of twenty-first-century fears - those of an impending environmental nightmare and the irreversible fate of a dying planet.

Classic sci-if!

Certainly not the movie interpretation with Rod Taylor.
The Time Traveler remains nameless, as do all the characters save Weena.
Sci Fi has certainly changed since the days of HGWells.
It was good to revisit this story.

very strange future!

I also thought that the Time Traveler (who goes unnamed) would travel back in time and change history, not go to the future.
There's a lot to unpack about the future he goes to. A lot. It would take some deep analyzing to say more about it.
I'll just sum up that I enjoyed it and Simon Vance performed a good narration.
3 out of 5 Clocks.
There's a lot to unpack.
