Description:

This carefully selected collection features classic works of fiction that explore the recurrent theme of time travel. In “The Clock that Went Backward”, a mysterious clock sends two cousins three hundred years back in time to play a vital role in a battle during the Eighty Years’ War. In H. G. Wells’ satirical novella, the time machine takes its inventor to a futuristic world, where humans have evolved into two distinct species: the Eloi and the Morlocks. The tale that ensues is a political commentary on Victorian England. Finally, in “A Christmas Carol”, Scrooge is forced to confront his future as part of a journey of personal redemption. The book includes 18 illustrations and the following engaging works: • The Time Machine (1895) • The Clock that Went Backward (1881) • A Christmas Carol (1843)
