'It is a ripping yarn, but it is also an eerie tale of isolation
and madness ... with a compellingly Byronic central character'
Guardian Combining thrilling adventure with scientific facts and a
wonder at the natural world, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
is Jules Verne's most enduringly popular novel. It begins when a
vast black object is spotted menacing the oceans, causing panic
over the world. When Professor Aronnax joins an expedition to hunt
down the creature, he and his two companions discover it is a giant
submarine, the Nautilus. Captured and held prisoner on board by its
captain, Nemo - unpredictable, enigmatic, exiled from humanity -
they have no choice but to travel the terrifying underwater depths
with him. Translated with an Introduction and Notes by David Coward
