About this ebook

The 1875 story of the peculiar doctor H�raclius Gloss, bibliophile, creature of habit, reasonable yet arrogant, continues to bring smiles to readers today. The doctor's discovery of a manuscript about metempsychosis (that ancient Greek philosophical doctrine that affirms to transfer of certain psychic elements from one body to another after death) will transform his life and mind forever.

Su estilo es bello y preciso, y refleja preocupación por el detalle, a la vez que una visión pesimista y angustiosa de la vida.
