Synopsis "Les Tribulations d'un Chinois en Chine (in French)"

Les Tribulations d'un Chinois en Chine est un roman d'aventures de Jules Verne, paru en 1879. Le richissime Chinois Kin-Fo vient de se trouver soudainement ruiné. La vie, qui lui paraissait jusqu'alors insipide, lui devient insupportable. Il contracte une assurance-vie de 200 000 dollars en faveur de sa fiancée, Lé-ou, et du philosophe Wang, son mentor et ami, à qui il demande de le tuer dans un délai de deux mois, tout en lui remettant une lettre qui l'innocentera de ce meurtre. Avant le délai imparti, Kin-Fo recouvre sa fortune, doublée. Il n'est plus question pour lui de renoncer à la vie. Mais Wang a disparu avec la lettre et il n'est pas homme à rompre une promesse! Voilà donc Kin-Fo condamné à mort, par ses propres soins! Une seule ressource: retrouver Wang. Et Kin-Fo de se lancer dans le plus haletant des périples au pays du Céleste Empire. Récit alerte à l'intrigue parfaitement menée, Les Tribulations d'un Chinois en Chine est un des joyaux des Voyages extraordinaires du grand Jules Verne.
