Relation Concering Books A Fantasy of Dr. Ox

Something very strange is in the air of the harmonious town of Quiquendone. Unknown to its inhabitants, the mad genius Dr. Ox has unleashed a veil of oxyhydric gas over the town—his own living laboratory—in an attempt to spice things up. In his amusing portrait of an idyllic community suddenly overtaken by an appetite for aggression, Jules Verne points to the ease with which any society—and the modern resonance is unmissable—can be manipulated by its masters into hatred and war. Jules Verne was the originator of modern science fiction; among his works are Around the World in Eighty Days and Journey to the Center of the Earth.

Quiquendone is a self-sufficient land of barley-sugar and whipped cream. Already, I am hungry, and happy. Gloriously, this state of affairs was to continue throughout A Fantasy of Dr Ox.Jules Verne is the author who catapulted me into a certain type of book, when, very young, I gobbled up Journey to the Centre of the Earth, Around the Moon, and From the Earth to the Moon in a weekend, and then everything else I could find of his in the weeks shortly afterwards. I have read Journey to the Centre

Jules Verne always makes me smile. Loved this little book.

تصور کن اکسیژن میتونه چه کارایی بکنه!(از اول کتاب یادِ گیگیلی و شهرشون افتادم :)) )



Interesting little thinker about the origin of passion and emotion, and the consequences, both positive (art, progress) and negative (war, violence).

3.75*

An odd little social satire with a teaspoon of sci-fi. Verne was never really know as a humor writer, and so this was a pleasant surprise, as it raises a few chuckles and at least two laugh out loud worthy lines.Very short, more a novella than a novel and you'll figure out the mystery waaaay before the big reveal.Dr. Ox is an interesting character, even though he spends most of the book off stage. Shame Verne never used him in any other books.
