The novel “Time Machine” (1895) describes a bold scientific experiment: its author is transferred to more than eight hundred thousand years ahead! At first glance, the society of the future looks quite attractive: technological progress has stopped, but its achievements are so great that people lead a relatively comfortable existence. However, a closer acquaintance with descendants reveals the terrible secrets of their life and pronounces the prospects of the prospects of all mankind. It reads a call not to separate the development of technologies from humanistic values ​​and remember the nature of Homo sapiens - not just a person, but a reasonable person.
