"You can call me Captain Nemo. We are on board the Nautilus, a ship of my invention ..." In this science-fiction classic reimagined by Dave Eggers in modern times, and from the point of view of the fourteen-year-old Consuelo the famous oceanographer Pierre Arronax sets sail from New York to hunt down a mysterious sea-monster which has been terrorizing the oceans, wrecking ship after ship and causing countless deaths. But they discover an even stranger truth: the "sea-monster" is in fact a submarine, captained by Nemo, who is living in self-imposed exile in international waters.
