Summary
"This book sets out to challenge an enduring legacy of misconceptions about Jules Verne's standing as a novelist by focusing on his innovatives, experimental approach to the genre. Discussion ranges widely over Verne's literary output, covering not only his best-known works, but also the texts of his apprenticeship years and the posthumous or more recently discovered writings. Verne emerges as a self-conscious author who ostentatiously manipulates stylistic forms and conventions. His uses of both fictional and non-fictional texts, alongside his constant examination of the presence of scientific discourses within narrative, place him firmly in the company of Flaubert and other canonical French novelists of the nineteenth century."--BOOK JACKET.
