La vuelta al mundo en 80 días

The adventure seemed to hit a lull there, but then it picked up again. Was that just me, or does that part feel a bit stretched out?

The mix of steamships, trains, and technology feels so ahead of its time. I wonder if Verne was inspired by real innovations or just dreamed up a future vision.

It made me think about how perspectives have evolved, but I’m curious whether Verne’s portrayal was typical for his time or if he was trying to challenge those views.
