Produktbeschreibung
His father taught him to see the stars as Galileo saw them. But those stars, they are scattered at random and are not as they appear. They are only in their current configuration seen from our vantage point. We may be standing on the shoulders of giants or stepping high to follow giant bootprints. Whether you trace your family one generation or ten, your life is the result of decisions that were made before you were born and without you in mind. And yet, you are the heir of those decisions. Sacrifices for the better and mistakes for the worse are notes played alone in the vast emptiness. Yet, woven in time, they create a symphony heard only when, with a backward glance, we understand how those notes reverberate within us.
