Após uma devastadora guerra nuclear, as grandes potências mundiais unem esforços para construir uma ilha artificial em pleno Oceano Pacífico para albergar cientistas e escritores de todo o mundo. Visitar a ilha como turista ou repórter é praticamente impossível.

O primeiro a quem é concedido o direito de visitá-la após vários anos, é um jornalista norte-americano, Charles Henry Winer. Para chegar à ilha, é obrigado a atravessar a denominada Faixa dos Hominídeos, nos Estados Unidos, povoado por criaturas mutantes: centauros, aranhas com cabeças humanas.

Após uma atribulada viagem, Winer chega por fim à República dos Doutos onde rapidamente se vê envolvido numa intriga entre os blocos ocidental e de leste, que tentam, por todos os meios, roubar os cérebros mais brilhantes ao inimigo.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Arno Schmidt

He was born in Hamburg on January 18, 1914, but spent much of his youth in Silesia.
During World War II he was stationed in Norway, eventually ending up as a prisoner of war of British troops.
He worked as a literary interpreter and translator, translating Edgar Allan Poe, William Faulkner, and others.
Schmidt's literary work is one of the most unique in 20th-century German literature, solipsistic, atheistic, and provocative, just like the author himself, who lived in isolation in a cabin in the heart of the Lüneburg moor in northern Germany from 1958 until his death in 1979.
Here he developed his own literary theory, refining a style that oscillates between the colloquial and the overtly complex.
Leviathan and Black Mirrors These are the first works by Schmidt to be translated into Portuguese.
