In 1894 Wells “began writing what he called ‘single sitting stories’ using his special knowledge of science, culminating in the publication of his novella The Time Machine in 1895. It was an immediate success” (Gunn, From Gilgamesh to Wells, 337). This title is also considered the author’s first SF novel. “Many rank it as Wells’s best book, certainly its qualities are striking and direct . All time-travel stories since owe a debt to Wells, none has become so acclaimed.” – Bleiler (ed), Science Fiction Writers, p. 26. “THE TIME MACHINE might be considered the first work of modern science-fiction, and it is still the classic statement of an important subgenre . A remarkable work, and necessary reading.” – Bleiler, Science-Fiction: The Early Years 2325.Its earliest readers grasped its significance: as one contemporary review states, “So far as our knowledge goes [Wells] has produced that rarity which Solomon declared to be not merely rare but non-existent–a ‘new thing under the sun’” (Bergonzi, 41). Important not only for establishing Wells as a popular author but also for making a “crucial breakthrough in narrative technology, providing science fiction with one of its most significant facilitating devices” (Clute & Nicholls, 1227), “it is the most important foundation stone of British scientific romance and the science fiction genre in general” (Anatomy of Wonder II-1232).Please see our stores on Ebay, and MeierAndSons.com for other listings, including others by Stephen King.
