Superb literary criticism on Jules Verne
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
A lucid, intelligent, and ground-breaking study of Jules Verne and his works by one of the top experts in the field. A flood of new imprints, translations, and monographs by/about Verne appeared during 2005 (the centennial of the legendary French author's death). Of these many publications, Unwin's book is one of the very best. Highly recommended.
