One of Jules Verne's strangest and most controversial novels. It tells the story of a small band of people on a tiny world torn from earth by a grazing comet and their struggles to survive in the wilderness of interplantary space. A strange mixture of dream-like fantasy and hard science---with the addition of an apparant anti-Semitic element that has had critics arguing for decades. Includes more than 100 illustrations from the original edition as well as an appendix with map and diagram. (Note: This edition is substantially corrected and expanded from the currently available Gutenberg version of the book.)
