Derek Beaven

Newton's Niece (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

From the disturbing goings-on in a present-day London mental hospital, the narrator of this daring and ambitious novel hurtles back through the past to the eighteenth century and Kit Barker, Isaac Newton's niece. What unfolds is a lavish and richly detailed portrait of London at that time, a story full of music and science and politics. Newton's Niece is a book about disorientation, human life as self-experiment and the speeding up of time, a novel that boldly explores gender and the early feminist struggle.
