I was recently listening a podcast from a guy specializing in 19th century fantastic, British literature. At one point he mentions Jules Verne and how he isn’t very well known in the English speaking world.
On the flip side, he talks a lot about H.G. Wells.
Being from a Scandinavian country, it’s the opposite here. Jules Verne is very well known but I barely knew about H.G. Wells before this podcast.
What do you think?
Roughly equal, if you know of one you probably know the other since their literature is the same broad genre. But both of their literature set are getting old and uh not in vogue.
