Summary: "De reis om de wereld in tachtig dagen" by Jules Verne is a classic adventure novel written during the late 19th century. The story revolves around Phileas Fogg, an enigmatic gentleman known for his punctuality and calculated lifestyle, who makes a wager that he can travel around the world in just eighty days.

The opening of the novel introduces readers to Phileas Fogg's meticulous and solitary life in London, highlighting his strict adherence to routine and his role as a member of the Reform Club.

His life takes a dramatic turn when he hires a servant, Passepartout, just before embarking on his ambitious journey. The narrative sets the stage for an epic adventure as Fogg prepares to leave London, igniting intrigue about his ability to achieve the seemingly impossible feat of circumnavigating the globe in such a limited timeframe.
