L'histoire commence au tournant du 20e siècle, avec le jeune H. G. Wells qui écrit et réécrit le conte fantastique qui est devenu son premier livre et qui fait sensation dans le monde entier : "The Time Machine". C'était une époque où de nombreuses forces convergeaient pour transformer la compréhension humaine du temps, tant philosophique que technologique : le télégraphe électrique, le chemin de fer à vapeur, la découverte de civilisations enfouies et la "perfection" des horloges.
