The Lighthouse at the End of the World

The lighthouse's symbolism and setting add such a sense of mystery — I wonder if real lighthouses influenced this choice or if it was purely imaginative.

While I appreciated the vivid imagery, I found myself wishing for more action. Was this slow pace intentional to build suspense or atmosphere?

Verne's mix of fantastical elements with classic exploration makes the world feel both magical and believable — what do others think about this balance?
