Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. ![]() ![]() I love this so much, but now I can't remember the details. I know the bee details captured my imagination, and I remember the story's non-linear style also intrigued me. I must go back and re-read this. It joins all the other bee lore, honey lore, honey cookbooks, books with "bee" in the title and bee science books I've collected, all because of one line in Eric Hansen's Motoring With Mohammed. The one line that sparked an idea for my graduate thesis and may someday be my life's work...beekeeping as economic development. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
In 1766, at the age of fifteen, Francois Huber learns that he is going blind. As the darkness descends he sets his mind on an extraordinary scientific inquiry - into the violent and sexually competitive world of the bee. He teaches his manservant to observe in his place and together they document their astonishing findings, with extraordinary obsessiveness and insight. Set against a backdrop of the scientific and intellectual idealism of the Enlightenment, Sara George's fascinating new novel is a story of passion, knowledge and human limitations.
