The Angelmaker

Eccentric and brilliant, Max Rosen, the celebrated political economist, remained a mystery to kin and friends. Upon his death, his grandson discovers that this great champion of rationality secretly sought wisdom from dialogues with angels. To unravel the enigma of his grandfather?s haunting vision he must find his way through a maze of bitter academic politics and chilling family secrets and, in the end, find himself. An exploration of modern mysticism, The Angelmaker blends Darwinism and Genesis into a startling vision of an extraordinary mind, and a dark, tragic mystery of love and death.
