Jules Verne's Lost Novel Resurfaces
Original: Jules Verne's Lost Novel
A newly published English translation of Jules Verne's long-suppressed novel 'Paris in the Twentieth Century' is drawing attention. Written in 1863 but rejected by his publisher and hidden for over a century, the book imagines 1960s Paris with technology-driven despair. Readers are revisiting how remarkably Verne anticipated modern life, and why the manuscript remained unseen until its 1994 discovery.
Why now: Discussion of newly available translations of Verne's once-lost futuristic novel.
