Résumé / Abstract : La quatrième de couverture indique : Late in the nineteenth century, a Victorian scientist shows his disbelieving dinner guests a device he claims is a Time Machine. Respectable London scarcely has the imagination to cope with him. A week later they reconvene to find him ragged, exhausted and garrulous. The tale he tells is of the 802, 701, of life as it is lived exactly on the same spot, in what once had been London. He has visited the future, he has encountered the future-race - elfin, beautiful, vegetarian, leading a life of splendid idleness. But this is not the only race, these are not our only descendants. In the tunnels beneath the new Eden there lurks another life-form.
