4. The main character, Phileas Fogg undertakes a journey around the world with his
servant,wagering to do it in 80 days.along the way he is consider a robber, rescues a
lady from sacrifice in India, sails through many stromy seas, fight Indians, crosses
collapsing bridges, runs a ship with itself as a fuel and plays a lot of whist.
The story is simple and fun, and shines with Verne’s recognisable style-
scientific, almost mathematic, with the highest regards for the main charecters and
full of real world and knowledge.
Phileas Fogg is described brillantly as satire of an intelligent english
gentleman, found the first pages where his life order is described hillarious –
showover – emphasises pedantism !
