    This reminds me of the original time machine novel。 Every single crab on earth reminds me of the time machine novel.

      It’s been a long time since I read it.

      The part at the end of time where all that remains is a dying crab on a desolate beach?

      I don’t remember the details, but the feelings and emotions that end of time nothingness and death of all things left is still with me… It is sad and lonely and depressing and empty feeling. Same with thinking about the eventual “Heat Death of the Universe”.

        He escapes to the future, it looks dead and cold, and then he hears a weird skittering or chittering or something and turns around to be confronted by giant murder crabs.

        I should read that chapter again. What a great book
