It's hard to be human
14.99 €
On a rainy Friday evening, Cambridge University professor Andrew Martin finds a solution to the world's most difficult math problem. It has the potential to change the entire course of human history. But Professor Martin suddenly disappears without a trace. When he is discovered some time later... walking down the highway without any article of clothing on his body, Professor Martin is acting a little strange. He seems different to his wife and son. He himself finds absolutely everything around him ridiculous, people - worthy of pity, human life - devoid of meaning. Everyone around him disgusts him. All except Newton. The old half-blind dog. Can Debussy, David Bowie, Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson keep Andrew Martin from the murder he's being forced to commit? Is there anything that goes better with a glass of white wine than a peanut paste sandwich? And what is the strange feeling that grips him when he looks into his wife's eyes? This witty, funny and sad at the same time, this book is about how hard it is to be human. And how amazingly great it is!
