The Time Machine, The Golden Age
The year eight hundred and two thousand, soft meadows, fruit for dinner, and the small gentle people of the upper world.
Retold for sleep from The Time Machine by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895 and long out of copyright. The story is Wells's; every sentence here is our own.
Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
