Publisher's Synopsis
The relationships between an eminent physicist, his beautiful wife and an inexperienced young man who aspires to become a scientist are transformed, by a strange combination of desire and illness, into the manifestation of a state of grace that seems to be typical of God. Through a very intelligent plot and deployed with the insight, irony and ease that characterize it, Huxley proposes a charming and very funny novel, but with a double background.
