Shocking his stodgy colleagues at the exclusive Reform Club, enigmatic Englishman Phileas Fogg wagers his fortune, undertaking an extraordinary and daring enterprise: to circumnavigate the globe in eighty days. With his French valet Passepartout in tow, Verne’s hero traverses the far reaches of the earth, all the while tracked by the intrepid Detective Fix, a bounty hunter certain he is on the trail of a notorious bank robber. Set from the text of George M. Towle’s original 1873 translation, this Modern Library Paperback Classic of Verne’s adventure novel comes vividly alive, brilliantly reflecting on time, space, and one man’s struggle to reach beyond the bounds of both science and society.

Jules Verne (1828-1905) was a French writer, poet and playwright. He is sometimes dubbed as the Father of Science Fiction and had a great influence on many latter day science fiction writers and scientists. Apart from other works, he wrote Voyages extraordinaires, an adventure/science fiction series of over 50 novels many of which are still highly popular among both adults and children. He is the second most translated writer in the world.
