Lindig | 51 comments There's an old man and a boy and a parrot in France (Paris?). They wind up in Brazil on a quest for an amazing library (or book). The underlying *plot* is the history of mathematics. Read it in the late 90s or early 2000s; was fairly new at that time.


Lindig | 51 comments Yes! Thanks so much. A wonderful book!

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 1396 comments Lindig, And somebody else was looking for it at some point because it's already on our shelves.


Lindig | 51 comments I think it may have been me (blush) but I failed to put it in My Books and so forgot about it again.

Thanks again for the reminder.

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 1396 comments Ah, that's fine. I'm glad you've found it again. I added it to my Mt. TBR.
