A review by jennifermreads
The Time Machine by H.G. Wells
3.0
A classic that stands the test of time for a reason.
Any science-fiction fan should read this tale – and then re-read it years later. I remember reading this as a teen and I’m very glad I revisited it as an adult. It was amazing to recall that this book was written in 1895 and yet feels like it could have been published yesterday.
The narration by Derek Jacobi was perfect. I felt I was sitting around the dining room table with the Time Traveler’s friends, listening to him recollect his journey and introduction to the Eloi, Morlocks, and dear, sweet Weena.
A timeless tale.
