In Alan Lightman's new book, a verse narrative, we meet a man who
has lost his faith in all things following a mysterious personal
tragedy. After decades of living "hung like a dried fly," emptied
and haunted by his past, the narrator awakens one morning
revitalized and begins a Dante-like journey to find something to
believe in, first turning to the world of science and then to the
world of philosophy, religion, and human life. As his personal
story is slowly revealed, little by little, we confront the great
questions of the cosmos and of the human heart, some questions with
answers and others without.
