El Anacronópete

"El Anacronópete" is a book written by Enrique Gaspar y Rimbau in 1881, and it is considered the first literary work to feature a time machine. This peculiar machine, created by Don Sindulfo and his assistant Benjamín, takes them and their companions on curious adventures through time to places like Granada in 1492, Pompeii during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, and China in the 3rd century. The book is a groundbreaking work that predates the famous time-travel narratives of H.G. Wells and Eugene Mouton. It is an exciting and imaginative story that has captured the imaginations of readers for generations.
