| Summary | "A Journey into the Interior of the Earth" by Jules Verne is a science fiction novel written during the late 19th century. The story follows Professor Otto Liedenbrock, a passionate and somewhat irascible scientist, who discovers an ancient text that hints at a journey to the center of the Earth. Accompanied by his reluctant nephew Axel, the two embark on a bold and perilous adventure filled with scientific inquiry and exploration. The opening portion introduces the dynamic relationship between Uncle Liedenbrock and Axel as they prepare for an extraordinary expedition. Upon finding a Runic manuscript referencing a journey to the Earth's center, Liedenbrock's excitement drives him to decipher its contents. Despite Axel's skepticism about the feasibility of such a journey and his growing trepidation, he is drawn into his uncle's fervent ambition. The narrative captures their preparations and the mounting tension as they head towards Iceland, where their adventure will truly begin, setting the stage for the exploration and challenges that lie ahead.
