New to Penguin Classics, the great underwater adventure story in a
stunning clothbound edition with original images. In this thrilling
adventure tale by the 'Father of Science Fiction', three men embark
on an epic journey under the sea with the mysterious Captain Nemo
aboard his submarine the Nautilus. Over the course of their
fantastical voyage, they encounter the lost city of Atlantis, the
South Pole and the corals of the Red Sea, and must battle countless
adversaries both human and monstrous. Verne's triumphant work of
the imagination shows the limitless possibilities of science and
the dark depths of the human mind. This new version by
award-winning translator David Coward brings Verne's novel vividly
to life for a new generation of readers. Jules Gabriel Verne
(1828-1905) was a French author and a pioneer of the
science-fiction genre. His novels include Journey to the Centre of
the Earth (1864), Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1869-70),
and Around the World in Eighty Days (1873), all available in
Penguin Classics. David Coward is Emeritus Professor of French at
the University of Leeds. He is the author of studies of Marcel
Pagnol, Marguerite Duras, Marivaux and Restif de la Bretonne, and
of a History of French Literature (2002). He has translated
numerous French classics, including Moliere's plays, Simenon's
novels and Albert Cohen's Belle du Seigneur, for which he was
awarded the Scott-Moncrieff prize in 1996. 'We are all, in one way
or another, the children of Jules Verne' - Ray Bradbury
