Around the World in Eighty Days has been a bestseller for over a century, but it has never before appeared in a critical edition. While most translations misread or even abridge the original, this stylish version is completely true to Verne's classic, moving as fast and as brilliantly as Phineas Fogg's own race against time. Around the World in Eighty Days offers a strong dose of post-romantic reality but not a shred of science fiction: its modernism lies instead in the experimental technique and Verne's unique twisting of space and time.
Around The World In Eighty Days (Young Reading Gift Books) Reviews
-
وای که چه مزه ای داد ژول ورن خوانی با دخترک!
-
Nicely illustrated brief. The point of the shoe not taken off wasn't clear, but I remembered it from the novel so i could explain to my daughter.
-
This is a bit more extensive for young readers; there are chapters and longer passages, so this would be best suits for first to third grade. The adventures depicted in the book are funny and create interest for the student.
-
This is a very good book to introduce the kids to the classics. It's fun and full of adventures.
My son enjoyed it so much, he used it for one of his book reports. -
Obviously not as good as the original text, but the adaptation, along with the illustrations, still captures the excitement and the adventure for younger readers.
