Exploring Jules Verne's early theatrical works, this collection features three plays translated into English for the first time. "An Excursion at Sea" humorously depicts a nautical adventure disrupted by pirates. "La Guimard" intertwines a romantic narrative between a dancer and painter Jacques-Louis David, set against a rich historical backdrop. Lastly, "The Thousand and Second Night" reimagines the union of the Sultan and Scheherazade from the Arabian Nights.
