There are no apertures for ventilation, yet the air is fresh. There are
no musical instruments, and yet, at the moment that my meditation opens,
this room is throbbing with melodious sounds....". "The Machine Stops" was first published in the Oxford and Cambridge Review in 1909 © 1947 E.M. Forster |
