The Time Machine Chapter 4

Meagan S


In my opinion, chapter 4 was rather boring. The book was talking about the Time Traveler and more of his interactions with these creatures. He noticed how the creatures weren't interested and amused for long and also came up theory that they are weak and lazy. He tried to tell them where he came from, where one of them caught on that he came from the thunderstorm (Which is true, because when he first came into this place, it was a wicked thunderstorm). After only a few seconds, the creatures were unimpressed. The Time Traveler noticed how civilization turned out to be perfect but had a toll on the inhabitants there and how everything worked, kind of like communism. One of the things in the novel that is a big question is why the creatures only eat fruit. Is it because that's all they can get? The Time Traveler said he only has the "half-truth" about what is going on and is soon to discover the real things that is going on behind all of this. I'm not really sure what to think of this chapter. Not the biggest fan of it, but it will be interesting to find out more about the creatures and what is happening with the civilization and the story behind it.
