L’île mystérieuse - Jules Verne
2 in stock - Almost gone!
During the American Civil War, five Northerners—engineer Cyrus Smith and his dog Top, reporter Gédéon Spilett, the black man Nab, sailor Pencroff, and young Harbert—were prisoners of the separatist troops when they escaped in a balloon. Caught in a storm, they landed on a desert island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
Ingenious and persevering, the five companions, despite being deprived of everything, soon organized themselves and began to live almost normally. Moreover, the island, which they named Lincoln, offered admirable and completely unexpected resources. But a series of inexplicable events and disturbing coincidences force them to believe in the presence of a mysterious power that constantly watches over them and guides their destiny, imposing its will on them in roundabout ways, intervening to save them at critical moments...
The Mysterious Island, one of the greatest novels by Jules Verne, that enchanter with inexhaustible charms.
Au cours de la guerre de Sécession, cinq Nordistes : l'ingénieur Cyrus Smith et son chien Top, le reporter Gédéon Spilett, le Noir Nab, le marin Pencroff et le jeune Harbert, prisonniers des troupes séparatistes, se sont enfuis en balIon. Pris dans la tempête, ils échouent sur une île déserte, en plein océan Pacifique.
Ingénieux, persévérants, les cinq compagnons, pourtant privés de tout, ne tardent pas à s'organiser, à vivre presque normalement. D'ailleurs, l'île, qu'ils baptisent du nom de Lincoln, offre des ressources admirables et tout à fait inattendues. Mais une série de faits inexplicables, des coïncidences troublantes les obligent à croire à la présence d'une puissance mystérieuse qui les épie sans cesse et conduit leur destinée, leur imposant sa volonté par des voies détournées, intervenant pour les sauver aux moments critiques...
L'Ile mystérieuse, un des très grands romans de Jules Verne, cet enchanteur aux charmes inépuisables.

FAQ
Here are the answers to the most common questions I get asked, please review them and reach out to me if you need more info on something, I love to help you pick the right book, just for you!
Are the books New?
Yes, all the books that I sell during my bookfairs or online on my e-boutique are brand new.. You will be the very first to flip all the pages and enjoy the feeling of holding your own book in your hand.
What defines the prices of the books?
As a passionate small business owner, my goal is to offer a high level of quality imported from France at the best price. I understand that some people may be surprised by the difference of price between French and American books. In France, books are more expensive as authors and illustrators get larger copyright compensations. Also, imports cost quite a bit if you take into account the price of transport as well as the weight of what is being transported. I appreciate your constant support, when you choose sustainable small businesses over large corporations.
Do you have a shop?
My main way of meeting you is book fairs, festivals and private sales. Ordering online through my e-boutique is the best way to support French Authors and Small Minority Owned business like mine.
