What to expect
When Jules Verne’s delightful tale of two globetrotting gentlemen first appeared in 1873, it won the hearts—and imaginations—of readers across Europe. Published chapter by chapter over the course of many months, Around the World in Eighty Days aroused so much excitement that readers placed bets on the outcome of Phileas Fogg’s endeavor.
When eccentric Englishman Fogg makes a daring wager that he can circle the globe in just 80 days, it’s the beginning of an incredible world tour. Accompanied by his devoted servant Passepartout, Fogg sets off on an adventure filled with amazing encounters and wild mishaps. Pursued all the way by the bumbling Detective Fix, who believes the two travelers are bank robbers on the run, Fogg and Passepartout must use every means of transportation known to 19th-century humans—including a hot-air balloon, a locomotive, and an elephant—to win the bet and escape capture.
Filled with fantasy, comedy and grand suspense, Around the World in Eighty Days will enchant listeners of all ages.
