| Summary |
"Kahden vuoden loma-aika" by Jules Verne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a group of boys who find themselves at the helm of a small ship called "Eteenpäin" after becoming stranded at sea due to a series of unfortunate events. Their adventure unfolds as they confront the challenges of survival against the elements and their own youthful bravado. At the start of the novel, a violent storm engulfs the "Eteenpäin," revealing that the crew consists solely of young boys, none of whom have adult supervision. Henri, the de facto leader, emerges along with his friends as they attempt to navigate the tumultuous waters, struggling against the odds to keep their ship afloat. The gripping tension of the storm highlights themes of bravery and camaraderie, setting the stage for their eventual shipwreck on an uncharted island. As they face the unknown, the boys must adapt to their new reality, triggering a series of adventures that test their resilience and resourcefulness. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
