Le voyage du centurion (Broché)

"Le Village aérien" (in English, "The Aerial Village") is a short story written by the renowned French author Jules Verne. It was first published in 1871 as part of his collection "Les Cinq Cents Millions de la Bégum" ("The Begum's Fortune"). The story is set in the French region of Lorraine and revolves around the engineer Simon Hart. Hart and his companions discover a hidden aerial village high in the mountains.
This village is an idyllic, self-sustaining community with advanced technology. As the story unfolds, the characters uncover the village's secrets and learn about its isolated and utopian way of life. "Le Village aérien" combines elements of adventure and science fiction, as Verne often did in his works. It explores themes of technology, isolation, and the contrast between traditional and modern ways of life.
