Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative explores the tumultuous life of Friedrich Houtermans, a brilliant physicist who fled to the Soviet Union to escape the Gestapo. His groundbreaking work on thermonuclear fusion and contributions to geochemistry are overshadowed by his harrowing experiences during the Great Purge, where he was arrested and tortured by the NKVD. Fearing for his wife Charlotte's safety, he falsely confessed to being a spy, only to be handed over to the Gestapo later. The book intertwines themes of scientific brilliance and the perilous intersection of politics and personal survival.
