Záhadně zašifrovaný rukopis, násilná vražda na
univerzitě, tajemství prince v labyrintu lží, šílenství a talentu.
"Naprosto zasvěcené a daleko méně upovídané než Šifra mistra
Leonarda" The New York Times. Text v angličtině. Princeton. Good
Friday, 1999. On the eve of graduation, two students are a
hairsbreadth from solving the mysteries of the Hypnerotomachia
Poliphili. Famous for its hypnotic power over those who study it,
the five-hundred-year-old Hypnerotomachia may finally reveal its
secrets -- to Tom Sullivan, whose father was obsessed with the
book, and Paul Harris, whose future depends on it. As the deadline
looms, research has stalled -- until an ancient diary surfaces.
What Tom and Paul discover inside shocks even them: proof that the
location of a hidden crypt has been ciphered within the pages of
the obscure Renaissance text.
Armed with this final clue, the two friends delve into the
bizarre world of the Hypnerotomachia -- a world of forgotten
erudition, strange sexual appetites, and terrible violence. But
just as they begin to realize the magnitude of their discovery,
Princeton's snowy campus is rocked: a longtime student of the book
is murdered, shot dead in the hushed halls of the history
department.
A tale of timeless intrigue, dazzling scholarship, and great
imaginative power, The Rule of Four is the story of a young man
divided between the future's promise and the past's allure, guided
only by friendship and love.
USA Today - Edward Nawotka: "The Rule of Four is more
intellectually satisfying than emotionally titillating. It's
perfect beach reading for Princetonians, would-be Renaissance
scholars and all who are looking to absorb some of the authors'
awesome erudition."
