Recenzii
'A masterpiece of quiet patience'
London Daily News
'This is not a book for journalists. Civil servants, too, will feel uneasy while reading it, and as for lawyers, they will never sleep again. For it is about a man in his capacity as homo faber, a maker of things with his hands, and what has any of us ever made but words. I say it is "about" the man who makes; truly, it is more a hymn of praise than a description, and not only because the toiler who is the hero of the book is a hero indeed - a figure, in his humanity, simplicity, worthy of inclusion in the catalogue of mythical giants alongside Hercules, Atlas, Gargantua and Orion. He is Faussone, a rigger.'
Bernard Levin, The Times
'One of the sanest, most experienced and wisest books I've ever read'
Glasgow Herald
'Transforms molecules and ballbearings into romantic fairy-tales'
