The book of complete relaxation and permanent revelation. A book that never bores the reader no matter how many times it is read. No matter if you read it from the beginning to the end or from the end to the beginning. A book of discrete pleasures and decent joys. A book of real adventures and amazing explorations with no sad shadows cast upon them. A book to soothe your heart and nurture your soul with a lot of good quality humor for your tired brain. It mixes Mary Poppins with Wind in the Willows and Sherlock Homes adventures with Hercules, Poirot mysteries and add a touch to all these and pop! You have the book of my dreams.
Here is a novel that is more like a very strong, vivid realistic documentary about human lives, human nature, human values, set in the context of the characters varied environments: the American scholar who wants to share his good fortune with others; the rocket scientist who was forced from one side of his native land to the other, then to Germany and finally to the United States; the Romanian lady who endured the communist deprivations under Nicolae Ceausescu yet found solace in a group of students who were able to transcend the mindless governmental control. The three lives intersect in the 1990s and take on new challenges. The primary message is, "Keep being curious about life and you'll stay in good health. Curiosity killed the cat, not the person and if it kills someone once in a while, the person dies happy in the midst of doing something exciting."
