  This imaginative graphic novel presents a fictionalized history of Jules Verne's experience writing the legendary 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Through strange encounters with such characters as an orphaned boy with a mysterious package, an Indian princess on an obsessive search, and an eccentric artist of fantastical creations, Verne discovers and immortalizes the most compelling character of his writing career: Captain Nemo. Weaving together details of Verne's own life with events aboard the infamous Nautilus, Francois Riviere tells a powerful - and cryptic - tale of art, science, and the dangers of passion.
