Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
La novela alemana de mayor xito desde El Perfume, traducida a ms de 40 idiomas y con ms de 6 millones de ejemplares vendidos en todo el mundo.Prlogo de Juan Gabriel Vsquez.La medicin del mundo, adems de una suerte de picaresca desopilante, es una brillante reflexin sobre la ficcin, el pasado y la manera como lo contamos: una reflexin, en fin, sobre lo que hacemos cuando inventamos ficcin, en particular sobre el pasado. Juan Gabriel VsquezCiencia y literatura se dan la mano en esta novela inteligentemente entretejida en la que Daniel Kehlmann, uno de los autores ms importantes de la literatura alemana contempornea, resucita las fascinantes personalidades de dos eruditos: Alexander von Humboldt y Carl Friedrich Gauss.A finales del siglo XVIII, estos dos jvenes alemanes se embarcaron en la descomunal empresa de medir el mundo. Alexander von Humboldt, un naturalista, viajero y aventurero empedernido de inagotable curiosidad, explor nuestro planeta y se abri paso por las selvas y estepas, naveg por el Orinoco y prob toda clase de venenos. Carl Friedrich Gauss, un hombre nacido en la pobreza y posteriormente reconocido como el ms importante matemtico desde Newton, era capaz de abandonar el lecho conyugal en plena noche nupcial para anotar una frmula matemtica. En 1828, ya mayores, estos dos genios de la Ilustracin alemana se reencuentran en Berln, donde evocan juntos los aos de su juventud y aventuras pasadas.La medicin del mundo, el mayor best seller en lengua alemana despus de El perfume, ampliamente galardonada y traducida a ms de 40 idiomas, es una novela que se distingue por un humor sutil y una fina irona, pero tambin por una caracterizacin de los personajes, una amenidad y un encanto inolvidables. En lugar de ensalzar a estos personajes histricos, el autor nos muestra estos genios excntricos en todas sus facetas: con sus grandezas y sus errores, sus pequeas manas y sus debilidades y anhelos, entre la soledad y el amor, el fracaso y el xito, y consigue de este modo un retrato humano indito, lleno de luces y de sombras.
