Jules Verne died exactly 100 years ago.
But his marvelous stories remain alive and now we can say that many things he imagined happened.
1st Science-Fiction author of all times, I have read many of his books when I was a young boy... I should read them again.
I have seen many movies inspired by his stories, I like them! :D Maybe I should once begin to read none-computer-science-books again! :wink:
I don't like science-fiction too much, but Jules Verne was my favourite writer when I was younger. I have also read many of his books. Sometimes I didn't want to do anything else but read until reaching the end of the story. :) (Unfortunately, I couldn't avoid eating, drinking, sleeping and throwing yellow & brown. :) )
And yes, sometime I have to read these books again... and there are many books that I only planned to read. I think I'll read them when I'll be a pensioner. :)
i am a literature teacher and only read around the world in 80 days from jules verne.
I prefer reading books from stephen hawking.
