Jules Gabriel Verne (French pronunciation: [ʒyl vɛʁn]; 8 February 1828 – 24 March 1905) was a French author who helped pioneer the science-fiction genre. He is best known for his novels A Journey to the Centre of the Earth (1864), From the Earth to the Moon (1865), Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1869–1870), Around the World in Eighty Days (1873) and The Mysterious Island (1875).
Verne wrote about space, air, and underwater travel before navigable aircraft and practical submarines were invented, and before any means of space travel had been devised. Consequently he is often referred to as the "Father of science fiction", along with H. G. Wells, Hugo Gernsback and Edgar Allan Poe.
Verne is the second most translated author of all time, only behind Agatha Christie, with 4223 translations, according to Index Translationum. Some of his works have been made into films.

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'Phileas Fogg was one of those mathematically exact people, who, never hurried and always ready, are economical of their steps and their motions. He never made one stride too many, always going by the shortest route. He did not give an idle look. He did not allow himself a superfluous gesture.' When Phileas Fogg wagers a bet that he can travel across the globe in just 80 days, little does he know about the epic journey that he is about to undertake. With his faithful French servant, Passepartout, Phileas Fogg embarks on the adventure of a lifetime, travelling across four continents by whatever means he can - train, elephant, steam ship - and experiencing endless surprises and mishaps along the way.
Around the World in 80 Days is the earlier fiction which was writen by Jules Verne. To be honest, during that time, Jules's fiction was in the initial stage. He still had a slight lack of enthusiasm in writing strategy, structure and style. But that doesn't...
评分我看的是这本书是一版一印的,之后印刷的有没有改正我就不清楚了。 第35页错的最多 第12行,“经都灵抵达蒙塞尼”应为“经蒙塞尼抵达都灵”(从下一行写的“离开都灵”可知) 第15行,“星期五下午五点”应为“星期六下午五点”(从上文“十月五日星期六下午四点,抵达布林迪...
评分我读的是2014年12月的新版本。 这本小说距今已有100多年了,但其中所富含的哲理却毫不过时。简单写一下我的收获: 1、一个最有激情的人,也可以是一个最循规蹈矩的人。过去我总是有意无意的蔑视那些循规蹈矩的人,觉得他们的生活乏善可陈。虽然,至今为...
评分在儒雅冷酷的外表下,有着波澜壮阔的一方世界。兵家有云:其疾如风,其徐如林,侵掠如火,不动如山,难知如阴,动如雷霆! 塑造了我欣赏的样子,不知其往,略有遗憾。一个能于火中取栗,又能在珠宝间自若,亦能在生死中如常的人,此等气魄,以往必不乏精彩。 这本书,说是流水...
