The Timeless Machine

by Mark Malamud

The place is Richmond, a suburb south-west of London. And something terrible—or wonderful—has happened. An English scientist, known only as the Time Traveler, has invented a machine.... Funny, clever, and heart-breaking, The Timeless Machine reshapes H. G. Wells’ original novella into an exploration of madness and grief.
