Jules Verne Classic Novels Editorial Review
This editorial review of "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" praises Jules Verne's science-fiction, man vs nature conflict and visions for technology, but also highlights his use of tragedy and bitterness throughout. The reviewer discusses Verne's literary references to history and mythology, as well as similarities to Melville's "Moby-Dick" in terms of a quest for knowledge, character-driven narratives, and scientific research-based chapters. However, Verne's novel is more futuristic, while "Moby-Dick" is more present-oriented. The story follows Professor Arronax, his servant Conseil, and harpooner Ned Land, who become prisoners on the submarine Nautilus under Captain Nemo after their frigate attacks what they think is a monster. While exploring the oceans, they battle sea monsters, visit Atlantis, and end up stuck under the ice at the South Pole. The relationships and tensions between the four men are the main focus besides the dangerous adventures. The novel features hard science fiction as well as descriptions of marine life and fauna. One criticism is the lack of humor throughout the book.
