Around the World in 80 Days is an adventure novel written by the Frenchman Jules Verne in 1873. The work portrays the technological advancements of those times. After all, until the second half of the 19th century, traversing the world was very difficult compared to today. Accomplishing it would be at least a feat that would take an unpredictable amount of time, perhaps many months.
However, with the emergence of powerful steamships and the creation and expansion of railway lines that crossed territories like India and the United States, this became possible. Still, for someone to say they could achieve this feat in eighty days, overcoming all sorts of challenges, seemed like a crazy idea. An eccentric Englishman named Phileas Fogg is challenged by his colleagues at a London club and embarks on an adventure filled with suspense. He is accompanied by the clumsy Passepartout, which makes the plot even more entertaining. In this adaptation entirely in English, the young reader will feel, on every page, this struggle against time and space, passing through different cultures in various parts of the world.
