Uno straordinario tipo di autobiografia in cui ciascuno dei 21 capitoli trae il titolo e il punto di partenza da uno degli elementi della tavola periodica. Mescolando fatti e finzione, scienza e resoconti personali, storia e aneddoti, Levi usa la sua formazione come chimico industriale e i terribili anni trascorsi come prigioniero ad Auschwitz per illuminare la condizione umana. Eppure questo testo squisitamente lucido è anche umoristico e persino spiritoso in un modo possibile solo a chi ha guardato nell'abisso.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. An extraordinary kind of autobiography in which each of the 21 chapters takes its title and its starting-point from one of the elements in the periodic table. Mingling fact and fiction, science and personal record, history and anecdote, Levi uses his training as an industrial chemist and the terrible years he spent as a prisoner in Auschwitz to illuminate the human condition. Yet this exquisitely lucid text is also humourous and even witty in a way possible only to one who has looked into the abyss. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001235545
