In 'The Discovery of Heaven', Harry Mulisch presents us with a Faustian tale full of wisdom and surprises. The story follows Max and Onno, two exceptional beings whose encounter in The Hague in 1967 gives rise to Quinten. Raised in a privileged environment, Quinten receives an education that ranges from astronomy to philosophy, preparing him for a sacred mission: to recover a lost divine testimony and return it to God. This novel invites the reader to reflect on history, philosophy, and art, all wrapped in an ironic and moving narrative.
Harry Kurt Victor Mulisch was a Dutch writer. He wrote more than 80 novels, plays, essays, poems, and philosophical reflections. Mulisch's works have been translated into 38 languages.
