Viaje Al Mundo Subterraneo Ludvig Holberg

Viaje al mundo subterráneo is one of the happiest satirical utopias in literature. The novel describes the journey of Niels Klim, who, like Alice, falls through a hole in the Earth and discovers that the interior of the Earth is a hollow space, with a central sun and small planets that orbit it. Captured by a dragon, he ends up on one of the planets, Nazar, and there he discovers the utopian civilization of the Potuans who, as a distorting mirror, serves to elaborate one of the fiercest satires on the human condition.
