Synopsis of La misura del mondo
Hacia finales del siglo XVIII, dos jóvenes alemanes se dedican a la medición del mundo. Uno es Alexander von Humboldt, quien inventa la geografía moderna explorando selvas vírgenes y estepas, navegando el Orinoco y escalando volcanes. El otro es el matemático y astrónomo Carl Friedrich Gauss, quien revoluciona la matemática demostrando la curvatura del espacio sin apenas salir de su hogar en Gotinga. Con un elegante sentido del humor, Daniel Kehlmann describe la vida de estos dos genios, sus debilidades y aspiraciones, y sus oscilaciones entre la torpeza y la grandeza. La obra es un juego refinado entre hechos reales y ficción, constituyendo una novela de aventuras filosófica llena de ironía y fantasía que culmina con el encuentro de ambos protagonistas en Berlín en 1828.
