Take a Trip Down the GOLDEN DANUBE Jules Verne's "Extraordinary Journeys" often used the travelogue mode, and here the author offers a voyage down the entire length of the Danube, from Germany to the Black Sea. However, rather than the placid "blue" Danube of classical conception, Verne offers one which is golden, in multiple ways. Smugglers are operating along the river, with the police in pursuit, and the hero is a champion fisherman who is abducted and forced to prove his courage. Synopsis: Jules Verne's 'Extraordinary Journeys' often used the travelogue mode, and here the author offers a voyage down the entire length of the Danube, from Germany to the Black Sea. However, rather than the placid 'blue' Danube of classical conception, Verne offers one which is golden, in multiple ways. Smugglers are operating along the river, with the police in pursuit, and the hero is a champion fisherman who is abducted and forced to prove his courage. Critique: A true 'time lost' literary treasure, this newly available work of the legendary French author, Jules Verne, 'Golden Danube', is an extraordinarily entertaining novel that has stood up well to the test of time. Ably translated into English by Kieran M. O'Driscoll, and under the editorial aegis of the North American Jules Verne Society in the person of Brian Taves, 'Golden Danube is a 'must read' for the legion of Jules Verne fans and will prove to be an enduringly popular addition to personal and community library collections. -- Midwest Book Review Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
