Summary "Les tribulations d'un chinois en Chine" by Jules Verne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Kin-Fo, a wealthy and somewhat indifferent Chinese man, and his friends as they discuss life, happiness, and marriage. A significant theme emerges regarding the nature of happiness and the complexities of relationships in a rapidly changing society. At the start of the novel, we find ourselves at a lavish dinner party hosted by Kin-Fo, who is about to marry. His friends engage in philosophical debates about happiness and existence while enjoying an extravagant meal served in a beautifully decorated setting. Kin-Fo shows a profound disinterest in these discussions, portraying a sense of ennui that permeates his life. The scene establishes the setting in Canton, provides insight into Kin-Fo's character, and hints at the internal conflicts he will face with the advent of his impending marriage and what it means for his pursuit of happiness.
