The Time Machine-By H.G. Wells

The Time Machine by H.G. Wells was about a man from the 19^th century that traveled through time in his time machine. The Time Traveler, for that is what he was known as, traveled to the year 802,701 A.D. and when he arrived there, he was in the same place he was before he left. While he was scoping out the area, he ran into some strange little creatures called the “Eloi”.  After The Time Traveler observed the Eloi, he came to his own first hypotheses that they are communists. He studied them further and began to see what they do all day. Well actually the Eloi were very lazy people that were afraid of the dark. All they did all day, every day was eat, sleep, and bathe. The Eloi were also asexual, which meant that they all looked the same which supported his hypothesis of the communist society. It was understandable that the Time Traveler thought that the Eloi were Communist until he met the Morlock. Once he met the “Morlock” he learned that they were pretty much the complete opposite of the Eloi. First of all the Eloi had fair skin, curly blond hair, and had little suction cup type instruments on their hands. Whereas the Morlock were pale skinned, strong, smart creatures that hunted the Eloi. The Eloi were afraid of the dark because the Morlock came out at night and hunted them. The Eloi were weak and the Morlock were strong. The Eloi were lazy and the Morlock were hard working. The Eloi and Morlock were opposites that lived in the same society. I think that is why Wells changed his perspective. The Eloi lived in a Communist society as Eloi. But the Eloi and the Morlock together were not a Communist society. That is what Wells was saying.
