Verne’s timeless underwater adventure story, now available in a new translation as a Penguin Classics black spine.
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. Along the way, they must battle countless adversaries both human and monstrous. This triumphant work of the imagination shows the limitless possibilities of science and the dark depths of the human mind.

Jules Verne was born in France in 1828 and died in 1905.

Verne is the second most translated author in the world, after Agatha Christie and before Shakespeare.
