"Round the World in Eighty Days" by Jules Verne is a classic adventure novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Phileas Fogg, a meticulous and eccentric English gentleman, and his new servant, Passe-partout, as Fogg wagers his fortune that he can circumnavigate the globe in just eighty days. With a blend of suspense, humor, and cultural encounters, the narrative explores not only Fogg's journey but the challenges of time and the notion of courage in the face of uncertainty. The opening of the novel introduces Phileas Fogg, highlighting his reclusive nature and obsessive punctuality, which define his character. We learn that he resides in a precise and orderly manner, leading an unremarkable life until he makes the bold wager with friends at the Reform Club that he can accomplish a journey around the globe in a brief period. He unexpectedly hires Passe-partout, a spirited Parisian with a tumultuous past, who hopes for a stable life. Their contrasting personalities set the stage for an exciting adventure filled with unforeseen trials as they embark on this incredible journey. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
