| Summary | "Les tribulations d'un chinois en Chine" by Jules Verne is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story introduces the reader to Kin-Fo, a wealthy Chinese man preparing to marry, and explores elements of Chinese culture, philosophy, and the clash between traditional and modern ways of life. At the start of the novel, readers are immersed in an elaborate dinner scene with Kin-Fo and his friends, featuring philosophical debates about happiness and the meaning of life. The conversation hints at Kin-Fo's impending marriage as he and his companion, Wang, journey back to his home in Shanghai. The opening lays the groundwork for Kin-Fo's character as someone who possesses wealth and privilege but is still caught in a web of ennui and existential musings, setting the stage for the challenges and adventures that will unfold as he navigates love, loss, and his identity in a rapidly changing society.
