Beschreibung
A sea monster has triggered alarms worldwide, and an expedition is finally organized to capture it. The expedition includes the renowned professor of Natural History, Pierre Aronnax, his assistant Bastienne, and the expert Canadian harpooner Ned Land, aboard the American frigate Abraham Lincoln. The monster turns out to be a remarkable submarine commanded by Captain Nemo, and the need to keep this secret poses a serious problem for the captain regarding the release of the three main characters. Captain Nemo, a wise man tormented and disillusioned with the human race, embodies both libertarian individualism and an exaggerated sense of justice, undoubtedly making him one of the archetypes of the adventure novel genre. His presence alone justifies the distinguished place that "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" holds within the genre.
Yet, the novel offers much more: excitement, knowledge, suspense, unforgettable characters, and unexpected twists... It stands as a milestone in adventure literature and a boundless source of inspiration for future speculative fiction. This Illustrated Youth Edition of "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" is the perfect introduction for young readers at home to Verne’s work, and also an excuse for adults to swiftly revisit a classic of adventure literature.
