'For an indefinite time I clung to the machine as it swayed and vibrated, quite unheeding how I went, and when I brought myself to look at the dials again I was amazed to find where I had arrived.'Embark on a journey hundreds of thousands of years into the future on a homemade time machine! The Time Traveler discovers what he first perceives as a perfect pastoral landscape inhabited by an evolved form of humanity, but soon he discovers the dark depths of a society gone awry. His own future is far from certain as he finds himself in a world of planetary devastation from which he may never escape. This engaging adventure offers a view of the distant future built on the technological and cultural innovations of the 1800s, yet its perspective still resonates with modern readers.Keynote Classics unabridged classic literature feature a no-spoiler Introductory Key, explanatory footnotes, and wide margins for note-taking to help readers get more from their reading experience, and remember, discuss, or write more confidently about classic literature.Annotated Keynote Classics begin with an Introductory Key to the work with hints about what to look for to find deeper meaning. Unlike other literature study guides, they contain no spoilers and don’t specify themes, motifs, and symbols found in the novel.
