Verne, Around the World
Jules Verne (1828–1905) is the author of some of the world’s most famous books. This Paperblanks design features a page from Verne’s handwritten draft of his masterpiece Around the World in Eighty Days. Jules Verne has the distinction of being the second most translated author in history, right between William Shakespeare and Agatha Christie.
Verne is remembered as one of the “Fathers of Science Fiction”. He is credited with being an inspiration for the steampunk genre, a movement championing science fiction based on 19th-century technology. Interestingly, Verne himself never aimed to be a scientific writer. Instead, he sought to share the beauty of the real world.
This cover features a page from Verne’s handwritten draft of his masterpiece Around the World in Eighty Days, with the novel’s frontispiece, illustrated by Alphonse de Neuville, shown on the back.
