WHAT'S IT LIKE TO STUDY ENGLISH AT OXFORD UNIVERSITY? - PART ONE

The Earth, it seems, is hollow, but populated with an array of alien, but intelligent creatures. After a few days of orbiting a planet within the hollow Earth, Niels finds that the planet revolves around an inner sun; it is a Copernican system of inner worlds. Niels is set upon by a gryphon, and falls down onto the planet, Nazar. On the planet, Niels is eventually taken prisoner by tree-like creatures, accused of attempted rape on the town clerk's wife, and put on trial. The case is dismissed and Niels is set the task of learning the language of this utopian state, Potu.

During the book, Klim chronicles the colourful culture of this Potuan utopia. He details their religion, their many countries, and their way of life. For example, the Potuans believe that if you perceive a problem at a slower rate, the better you understand and solve it. He is appalled at their gender equality; men and women share the same kind of jobs.
