Synopsis
Around the World in 80 Days (English Edition) by Jules Verne is a timeless adventure that turns a simple wager into an unforgettable race against the clock. When the unflappable gentleman Phileas Fogg stakes his fortune on completing a journey around the globe in just 80 days, he and his loyal companion Passepartout set off from London with meticulous precision—only to find that the world has a way of testing even the best-laid plans.
From roaring steamships and rattling railways to unexpected detours and daring escapes, Verne’s classic sweeps readers through bustling cities, remote landscapes, and high-stakes encounters where every delay threatens disaster. As suspicion and pursuit follow close behind, the journey becomes more than a feat of logistics—it becomes a thrilling contest of nerve, ingenuity, and endurance.
Brimming with suspense, wit, and the wonder of discovery, Around the World in 80 Days remains one of literature’s most beloved tales of travel and perseverance. Whether you’re revisiting this classic or meeting it for the first time, this English edition invites you to experience the exhilaration of a world-spanning adventure where time is the greatest adversary—and the finish line may hold one final surprise.
