Synopsis
How can time travellers influence the course of the world before its collapse? The 19th century, a pivotal period in industrial development, was also a time of scientific inventions and literary and artistic creation.
These men who marked their era recorded their words on the necrophone, a device for recording the voices of the dead. Perhaps there are answers to the problems of the world?
