Descripción
Like his great-great-great-uncle, the early geneticist Gregor Mendel, Dr Benedict Lambert struggles to unlock the secrets of heredity. For Benedict, however, the mission is particularly urgent and personal, because he is affected by achondroplasia: he is a dwarf. When a chance meeting leads him towards the acceptance he craves, he begins a journey to correct the injustice of his own capricious genes, with devastating consequences. Intelligent and entertaining, this witty English-language novel is a gripping tale of scientific intrigue and moral uncertainty.
