One day while Phileas Fogg is with some fellow whist players; he reads in a newspaper that it is possible to travel around the world in eighty days. No one believes this is true, except Phileas. Phileas bets his challengers, that he can make the journey in eighty or under days, and then leaves along with his servant immediately. 

The subplots are intertwined with the main thread and include Detective Fix’s suspicion that Fogg is a robber, Aouda’s love for her savior Fogg and Passepartout’s profuse buffooning and blustering. 

Passerpartout discovers Detective Fix’s intentions to arrest Phileas Fogg while in Hong Kong but he does not inform Fogg about it. Instead, he agrees to cooperate with Detective. In Liverpool, Fogg is arrested. Phileas Fogg wins the wager and also he does not lose all his fortune. As he initially feared, even though he spent a lot of money along the journey in order to travel around the world.

     Men live in a modern world full of fantastic innovations that enable them to accomplish amazing things, which is one subject of the novel Around the World in Eighty Days. There is also a notion of "doing what you love," which is another factor. Mr. Fogg exhibits this by playing whist repeatedly and then again when he gives everything up to be with Aouda. ]]> 2022-08-16 15:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/joseeaa96/Bookmarks/wish/2262384177 joseeaa96 https://padlet.com/joseeaa96/Bookmarks/wish/2262386422 1. Characters from many different cultures are incorporated into the author's narrative. By claiming that the Indians were capable of impeding railway transportation by destroying the railway lines, robbing the wagons, and injuring the passengers, Andrew Stuart, an Englishman and Fogg's coworker at the Reform Club, seems to be apprehensive of the Indians.
