G. Wells, published in 1895. Although Wells is generally credited with the popularisation of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively, The Clock That Went Backward by Edward Page Mitchell was published in 1881 and involves a clock that allows a person to travel backwards in time. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now universally used to refer to such a vehicle. This work is an early example of the Dying Earth subgenre. The Time Machine has since been adapted into two 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.(Summary adapted from Wikipedia.org - attribution: en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Time_Machine&action=history) âšF A C E B O O K: www.Facebook.com/GreatestAudioBooks âšT W I T T E R : www.twitter.com/GAudioBooks âš S U B S C R I B E to Greatest Audio Books: www.youtube.com/GreatestAudioBooks ð F R E E 30 day Audible Audiobooks Trial: amzn.to/2Iu08SE ð B U Y T-SHIRTS & MORE: bit.ly/1akteBP - READ along by clicking (CC) for Closed Caption Transcript! - LISTEN to the entire audiobook for free!

His grey eyes shone and twinkled, and his usually pale face was flushed and animated. The fire burned brightly, and the soft radiance of the incandescent lights in the lilies of silver caught the bubbles that flashed and passed in our glasses. Our chairs, being his patents, embraced and caressed us rather than submitted to be sat upon, and there was that luxurious after-dinner atmosphere when thought roams gracefully free of the trammels of precision. And he put it to us in this way--marking the points with a lean forefinger--as we sat and lazily admired his earnestness over this new paradox (as we thought it) and his fecundity. 'You must follow me carefully. I shall have to controvert one or two ideas that are almost universally accepted. The geometry, for instance, they taught you at school is founded on a misconception.' 'Is not that rather a large thing to expect us to begin upon?' said Filby, an argumentative person with red hair. 'I do not mean to ask you to accept anything without reasonable ground for it. You will soon admit as much as I need from you. You know of course that a mathematical line, a line of thickness _nil_, has no real existence. They taught you that? Neither has a mathematical plane. These things are mere abstractions.' 'That is all right,' said the Psychologist. 'Nor, having only length, breadth, and thickness, can a cube have a real existence.' 'There I object,' said Filby. 'Of course a solid body may exist. All real things--' 'So most people think. But wait a moment. Can an _instantaneous_ cube exist?' 'Don't follow you,' said Filby. 'Can a cube that does not last for any time at all, have a real existence?'...CONTINUED... #audiobook #audiobooks #freeaudiobooks #greatestaudiobooks #book #books #free #top #best #TheTimeMachine #HGWELLS #ScienceFiction #literature Running Time: 3:47:21 V4 This video: Copyright 2014.
