Partly a travel narrative, Clovis Dardentor is an 1896 fiction novel by French writer Jules Verne. Compared to other Verne novels, it is a relatively unknown work.
Very common throughout Clovis Dardentor is Verne's usage of a comedic, slightly burlesque tone in the narration and in the characters'dialogues (something which the narrator confirms at a certain point of the novel).
The original illustrations were drawn by designer Léon Benett.
A movie adaptation of Clovis Dardentor is currently underway through www.buyacredit.com. Annette Badland and Stephen Fry have already been cast in the film.
