E.M. Forster’s “The Machine Stops” paints a bleak picture of a future society entirely dependent on a vast, all-powerful machine. Humans live in isolated cells, their needs catered to by the machine, which also provides communication and entertainment. Vashti, a content inhabitant, is disturbed by her son Kuno’s desire to explore the surface world and question the machine’s dominance. As the machine begins to malfunction, chaos ensues, revealing the society’s vulnerability and the loss of human connection. The story culminates in the machine’s complete failure, leaving humanity helpless and facing an uncertain future.
