Jules Verne - Cirkuszkocsival a sarkvidéken through

The nineteenth century was an exciting one. The slow pace suddenly began to accelerate, new inventions and discoveries were born one after another, and soon the world changed more in the course of a year than before in a lifetime. Of course, there was still much that was unrealizable, but the unimaginable is becoming less and less. Jules Verne's oeuvre is an excellent example of this, and most of what he imagined has since been realized.

Unlike most of the writer's works, in the pages of Cirkuszkocsi through the arctic region, we do not encounter the possibilities provided by new or non-existent technical achievements, but rather the man who lives with them, the man of the future. Instead of the vibration of "already possible", the reassuring feeling of "still possible" accompanies the young reader here, the ten-thousand-year-old familiarity of a slow, slow migration across continents shivering in the guts. And the strength of family togetherness that overcomes all difficulties, in its immovability it is as if the rolling home is not on an adventurous journey, but the Earth turns a good half under it.
