SFFAUDIO - The Machine Stops by EM Forster

 EM Forster is best known for his classic novels reflecting and dissecting British society in the early 20th century such as Howards End, A Room with a View and A Passage to India. However in 1909 he published a science fiction novella The Machine Stops, which now over a hundred years later seems eerily prescient. Join host Jesse Willis, Professor Eric S. Rabkin and Mr Jim Moon for an in-depth discussion of this most fascinating work!
