20.000 Léguas Submarinas by Jules Verne
A marine naturalist, his servant and a Canadian harpooner are taken aboard a mysterious submarine under the command of the enigmatic Captain Nemo, embarking on a globe-spanning voyage of scientific exploration and hidden motives. They witness astonishing undersea landscapes, monstrous creatures, polar ice, submerged ruins and naval confrontations, while the vessel’s advanced technology and its captain’s obsessive quest for freedom and vengeance raise moral and philosophical questions. The narrative mixes adventure, speculative science and human drama as curiosity and confinement collide, culminating in a tense struggle for survival and escape.
