About “The Chase of the Golden Meteor”
The Chase of the Golden Meteor is a novel by Jules Verne, one of his last works. It was originally written in 1901 and later revised by the author before his death. The book was published in 1908, three years after Verne's death, and is among seven posthumous novels. While Verne is known as a pioneer of hard science fiction, this novel is viewed more as a social satire. It critiques themes such as greed, monomania, and vanity. The story reflects Verne's wit and his ability to comment on human behavior through fictional scenarios. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
