Round the World Again in 80 Days: (Mon Premier Voyage)

Jean Cocteau; Stuart Gilbert

Synopsis:
Originally written for the newspaper Paris-Soir in 1936, Jean Cocteau retraces the famous voyage round the world undertaken by Jules Verne's Phileas Fogg in 1873. Sixty-three years later the journey had lost none of its difficulties--but Cocteau goes further, making both a real voyage and a fantasy of the mind. Cocteau's witty and subjective narrative give this travel-memoir a camp and stylish spin.
