Nevertheless interesting if one is curious about 19th century marine biology (if nothing else, then to compare and contrast what was already known and what wasn't), and the history of science fiction. Annotated edition recommended

Eu não sabia o que esperar ao iniciar Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (Vinte Mil Léguas Submarinas), provavelmente por isso o livro começou forte para mim. A ideia de uma tripulação em um barco do século XIX se juntando para ir em busca de um possível monstro marinho é muito empolgante. A obra possui apenas quatro personagens de destaque são esses: o Professor Pierre Aronnax, o narrador da história; seu leal “servo” Conseil; o lançador de arpão Ned Land; e finalmente o misterioso Capitão Nemo, criador do submarino Nautilus. A medida que eu li o livro, no entanto, a minha “empolgação” inicial foi se ajustando. O livro se mostrou com poucos momentos de ação e me fez sentir em grande parte como se eu estivesse simplesmente observando o dia a dia dos personagens a bordo do Nautilus. Na obra há diversos momentos de mera observação das maravilhas submarinas, dos segredos que o Oceano oculta. Vemos grande parte disso través dos olhos do Professor Aronnax.
