This 2nd edition spans 76 pages and explores the journey of the Time Traveller, who constructs a time machine and ventures into the distant future of 802,701. Anticipating a world filled with advanced intellect and remarkable inventions, he instead encounters a society of fragile, child-like beings who appear joyful yet harbor a deep fear of the dark.

The story raises questions about the evolution of humanity and the nature of happiness, while also touching on themes relevant to language arts and foreign language study. This edition serves as an accessible entry point for those interested in classic literature and the study of English as a Second Language.
