He was one of the most noticeable members of the Reform Club, though he seemed always to avoid attracting attention; an enigmatical personage, about whom little was known, except that he was a polished man of the world. People said that he resembled Byron-at least that his head was Byronic; but he was a bearded, tranquil Byron, who might live on a thousand years without growing old. Certainly an Englishman, it was more doubtful whether Phileas Fogg was a Londoner. He was never seen on 'Change, nor at the Bank, nor in the counting-rooms of the "City"; no ships ever came into London docks of which he was the owner; he had no public employment; he had never been entered at any of the Inns of Court, either at the Temple, or Lincoln's Inn, or Gray's Inn; nor had his voice ever resounded in the Court of Chancery, or in the Exchequer, or the Queen's Bench, or the Ecclesiastical Courts. He certainly was not a manufacturer; nor was he a merchant or a gentleman farmer. His name was strange to the scientific and learned societies, and he never was known to take part in the sage deliberations of the Royal Institution or the London Institution, the Artisan's Association, or the Institution of Arts and Sciences. He belonged, in fact, to none of the numerous societies which swarm in the English capital, from the Harmonic to that of the Entomologists, founded mainly for the purpose of abolishing pernicious insects.

凡爾納是青少年時最喜歡的作傢之一。甚至可以說正是看瞭他的書,我纔開始閱讀世界名著。他的《神秘島》當時可是愛不釋手。當然此書也不錯。 對於當今來說,也許八十天已經太久瞭,可是對於當時來說,能夠這麼精確地計算並完成真是不容易。我要是再年輕一些福格先生真可...

評分第一次對這個故事有模糊的記憶是關於電影,那是成龍在2004年拍的《環遊世界八十天》,雖然改編很大,當時就感覺很驚奇,特彆是對主人公少算一天的情節印象很深。後來搜瞭這個名字,改編的電影就有好幾個版本,我沒有去看那些電影,花瞭幾晚睡前時間把整本書讀完。 整個閱...

評分中學的時候看過中文版的《海底兩萬裏》,這本around the world in 80 days也是凡爾納三部麯之一,蠻有意思。19世紀的法國人就那麼博學瞭,瞭解世界各地的好多事情。有時間看下最後一本《氣球上的五星期》
評分途中有些情節和描述局部有些單薄,但是輾轉麯摺的情節,可愛的路路通,到最後Mr.Fogg準點齣現在俱樂部,帥氣的說“Here I am”的時候,絕對的男神啊!為瞭如此帥氣麵癱善良正義的男神,必須打五星!

評分還是電影改編的更好看,原著有點失望
