Resumo

In the novel Hector Servadac by Jules Verne, on January 1st, a man challenges another man to a duel on the Algerian coast because both of them are in love with the same woman, a young widow. That night a meteorite crashes into the Earth taking away the western Mediterranean coast. Together with its inhabitants, this area keeps spinning around the Solar System, on its own orbit, for two years before returning to its original place. This plot allows the French author to evoke the regeneration of the society of his time and, despite the widely spread idea that women have little importance in his novels, we meet Nina, an essential character for such a regeneration to take place.
