ABOUT THE BOOK
Phileas Fogg, a precise and unflappable London gentleman, bets his fortune that he can travel around the globe in just eighty days. With his new French valet Passepartout in tow — and a detective convinced he is a bank robber on his heels — he sets off by steamer, train and even elephant, racing against the clock.
Jules Verne's adventure, first published in 1872, has been a favourite for generations. This Oxford World's Classics edition, translated by William Butcher, includes an introduction and notes.
DETAILS
READ NEXT
The Divine Comedy
Dante Alighieri
This single volume, blank verse translation of The Divine Comedy includes an introduction, maps of Dante's Italy, Hell, Purgatory, Geocentric Universe, and political panorama of the thirteenth and early fourteenth century, diagrams and notes providing the reader with invaluable guidance.
Don Quixote
Miguel de Cervantes
Don Quixote, originally published in two parts in 1605 and 1615, stands as Cervantes' belated but colossal literary success.
The Idiot
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The Idiot (1868), written under the appalling personal circumstances Dostoevsky endured while travelling in Europe, not only reveals the author's acute artistic sense and penetrating psychological insight, but also affords his most powerful indictment of a Russia struggling to emulate contemporary Europe while sinking under the weight of Western materialism.
