Fakta

In "Around the World in Seventy-Two Days," Nellie Bly masterfully chronicles her audacious journey to circumnavigate the globe in a mere 72 days'Äîan astonishing feat at the time that defied societal norms for women. Bly employs a journalistic style rich in vivid descriptions and experiential detail, immersing readers in both the triumphs and challenges of her daring expedition. Contextually, her work emerges from the late 19th century's burgeoning interest in travel narratives and the burgeoning field of investigative journalism, a domain largely dominated by men until her groundbreaking endeavors. Nellie Bly, born Elizabeth Cochran, was a pioneering journalist whose innovative spirit and commitment to social reform propelled her into the public eye. After her groundbreaking expose on the mistreatment of patients in mental institutions, Bly sought to push boundaries further by embarking on an adventure that mirrored Jules Verne's fictional voyage. Her desire to illustrate the resilience of women and challenge gender stereotypes reverberates throughout her writing, making her an iconic figure in the realm of journalism and women'Äôs rights. This book is highly recommended for readers seeking both adventure and a deeper understanding of early feminist literature. Bly's work not only entertains but also inspires by showcasing one woman'Äôs determination to explore the world on her own terms. It is a testament to courage, curiosity, and the relentless spirit of a trailblazer.
