Produktinformationen "Ararat"
Mount Ararat in Turkey is where as biblical tradition has it Noah's Ark ran aground and God made his covenant with mankind. Now it stands astride the fault-line between religion and science a geographical political and cultural crossroads bound up with the centuries-old history of warfare between different cultures in this region. Frank Westerman takes a pilgrimage from the mountain's foot to its highest slopes meeting along the way geologists priests and an expedition in search of the Ark's remains as well as a Russian astronaut who observes that 'there is something between heaven and earth about which we humans know nothing'. Ararat is a dazzling highly personal book about science religion and all that lies between by one of Europe's most celebrated young writers.
