p First published in 1895, 'The Time Machine' is a science fiction novella by H.G. Wells, an English writer. Excellent in many genres, he wrote dozens of novels, short stories, and works of social commentary, history, satire, biography, and autobiography.ppp Wells crafts a striking and haunting picture of an earth some 800,000 years into the future. He is typically credited with the popularization of the notion of time travel by using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel deliberately and selectively forwards or backwards in time. The term time machine, coined by Wells, is now universally used to direct to such a vehicle. The Time Machine has been adapted into three feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. It has also indirectly inspired many more works of fiction in many media productions.ppp Top 10 Hardcover Library Books ppp A Wrinkle in Time 9789389440188ppp How to Stop Worrying and Start Living 97893876
