vuelta al mundo en ochenta días
by Jules Verne
'vuelta al mundo en ochenta días' Summary
El flemático y solitario caballero británico Phileas Fogg abandonará su vida de escrupulosa disciplina para cumplir con una apuesta con sus colegas del Club Reformista, en la que arriesgará la mitad de su fortuna comprometiéndose a dar la vuelta al mundo en sólo ochenta días usando los medios disponibles en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX y siguiendo el proyecto publicado en el Morning Chronicle, su periódico de lectura cotidiana. Lo acompañará su recién contratado mayordomo francés, y tendrá que lidiar no sólo con los retrasos en los medios de transporte, sino con la pertinaz persecución del detective Fix, que, ignorando la verdadera identidad del caballero, se enrola en toda la aventura a la espera de una orden de arresto de la Corona británica, en la creencia de que, antes de partir, Fogg robó el Banco de Inglaterra.Book Details
