“I became a geologist because of Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth and Professor Lidenbrock.”
Şengör recounts in a YouTube interview that Verne's novel — and the Lidenbrock character specifically — is the reason he chose geology as a child, deepened later by Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.
