L'île à hélice: un roman de science-fiction de Jules Verne

Overview

Quatre musiciens français visitent l'île artificielle de Standard Island, caprice de milliardaires américains. Opulente ville, campagne souriante, installations électriques futuristes, tout y est parfaitement capitaliste et arrogant, en contraste avec le naturel des îles et leurs populations primitives.
