my summary of "time machine", wells

> 1 a group was talking about travel. they sat comfortably in a home in Britain. they discussed how we can move straight in 3 dimensions: forward or side which mean length line or width line, and down. to go straight up we can jump but not far. a MACHINE aids us to go up in the third dimension, a hot air balloon, they suggested. similarly as time proceeds, we move together in the line of time dimension, at the same rate into the future but a MACHINE can aid a traveler to go faster to the future and similarly to the position on the line that is past, double meaning. (2) the host [named travess but not yet a time traveler, as wells wrongly called him] showed them a functional model of the device. they watched this "machine" vanish moving into the future at a faster velocity. the crowd doubted [this served the purpose for readers to relate their own doubts to the characters]. travess showed them the almost completed full scale device with a saddle he will ride on.
> 3=2 a group gathered again. the new guests heard from the others the unbelievable vanishing of the model. the narrator, who had been in the audience also said, "i DOUBT," and others said that probably he tricked us. they ate lamb meat until travess appeared. he is "footsore" meaning he limped showing his feet were sore. the "time traveler" explained thay he "returned" from a shocking travel. he washed and changed clothing. he ate some mutton [lamb meat] and invited his guests to hear his adventure.
> 4 the "time traveler" told his story of moving to the future "time travelling" watching the flash of day and night. he stopd at a certain year and got hit by hail. he saw people wearing colored thick soft robes in luxury. he had fear that the future is not the "continuing development of technology" but is relieved to meet the calm graceful people.
> 5 they ate fruit and seemed to have calm and safety in a "golden" era, lacking worries. (6) travess realized they had stopped developing and struggling mentally, due to habit sufficing for robes and fruit. this indicated "sunset of mankind". (7) that night he noticed his machine was missing. he felt "shock" and panicd and ran to look closely. he cried in sadness and horror at the loss of his machine which more importantly to him was the loss of ability to return to his "real" life and reporting his discovery. (8) he failed to communicate with the people but realized that the support of a statue was hollow so his machine must be inside, this "explained" its disappearance.
> 9=9 he went down a deep "well" and met the "ape-like" white underground industry workers. they dragged their hands ape-like as they walked bent forward. they were named "morlocks". [both halves relate to water "moor" is a boat moored by a dock and loch is english for lake. i dont like the name he chose].
> 10 at "night" when the light of the moon was small the pales came and took some surface people as food.
> 11 he went to a "palace of green porcelain" which was a museum in contrast to the other buildings and palaces "shared" by families communally or as the author called it "communistly" but economic communism not single party political lack of options.
> 12 the most exciting chapter! after leaving the museum he had a plan and supplies. when "darkness came" he was prepared and lit a fire. he went with a little lady toward the statue of the white marble sphinx that had wings spread wide, like his hope to fly home. in the forest of trees pales attacked! he lit a match and a fire. he stayed by the fire... and fell asleep. when he awoke pales had abducted his little lady companion. they pulld him down... such fear he would be their meat... but he felt his iron bar on the floor, which he had taken from the museum. he hit them away for a few minutes... feeling doomed but anyone who tried to get him would pay the painful price. the fire he had lit before spread burning the forest... the light blinded the subterraneans... they fled. the MOST surprising is some blindly ran into the flames. he was saved and safe.
> 13 he saw his machine under the statue. he understood "the trap" which he "expected" but he knew his escape was guaranteed! the panels "clanged shut" pales jumped on him as he attached the control levers back to the device sockets. he sped ahead. sawe the earth stop spinning and the sun swell. he saw the future animal life.
> 14 the "time traveller returned" watching the pattern of sunset repetition reverse. he invited the narrator, into his lab. he vanished and despite waiting they never saw each other again. where had he gone? to the future or the past? why do YOU think that he had not returned? the end.
