About this audiobook

A Victorian scientist travels hundreds of thousands of years into the future, only to find the human race decayed into two terrifyingly specialized species. The delicate, surface-dwelling Eloi live in blissful ignorance, while the predatory Morlocks maintain the machinery of the world from the shadows. This landmark novel is a chilling meditation on social inequality and the ultimate fate of the human species.
