Sinopsis

Len&rsquo,s Notesáchronicles the last year of his short life as told by Henry Red Feather a Native American Indian who was his friend and shared a flat with him in Egypt. Len was a young Egyptian mathematician whose brilliant mind bordered on that of a genius but was equally fragile. He died of a brain haemorrhage at the age of 26 leaving behind many notes, mathematical papers and unfinished theories as to whether the universe and mankind were a product of natural evolution or the creation of God. His other great quest was to find a value for zero. Len&rsquo,s notes also challenge many scientific claims that are mainly computer-driven, based on clever simulation presented as fact, but in reality are no more than theoretical and can never be substantiated in a way that can be readily understood by society. Following his death, Len&rsquo,s father asked Henry to assemble his son&rsquo,s notes into a book. The notes capture the drama, elation of new discoveries, the lows of depression and the curse of self-doubt. Entwined within Len&rsquo,s notes are Henry&rsquo,s recollections of his own life. Len&rsquo,s notes provide new insights into the questions Paul Gauguin asked in his famous painting,á&lsquo,Where did we come from, why are we here, where are we going&rsquo,.á
