About This Item
David R Godine Pub, 1984, 1984. Soft cover. Near Fine. Octavo, softcover, near fine in blue decorative wraps. unmarked. 242 pp. The work of Nicholas Koppernigk, better known as Copernicus, shattered the medieval view of the universe and led to the formulation of the image of the solar system we know today. Here his life is powerfully evoked in a novel that offers a vivid portrait of a man of painful reticence, haunted by a malevolent brother and baffled by the conspiracies that rage around him and his ideas while he searches for the secret of life.
