註釋Giacopo Tigor, the hero of Peter Stephan Jungk's extraordinary novel, is a professor of Mathematics, a proponent reeling from a succession of intellectual defeats sustained at the hands of advocates of Chaos theory. Unable any longer to face the life he has made, he goes AWOL in Europe, first in Paris, where he fulfils a boyhood dream to work in the theatre. It is there that he experiences a vision that drives him onward to a greater quest: a journey which takes him to the snowy heights of Mount Ararat and beyond, in search of the remains of Noah's Ark. It is a tale very similar to that told in the bestselling Man Who Loved Numbers.
