Nagel im Himmel is a German-language novel about Oliver, a mathematically gifted boy from a small Saxon town whose mother left shortly after his birth and whose father meets him with indifference. A prize at the Mathematics Olympiad in Montreal at seventeen brings recognition but not happiness, and his work on the mystery of the primes drives him toward the edges of his existence until the physicist Ina pulls him out of his isolation. It is a coming-of-age story about loneliness, genius and rescue through love, aimed at readers of literary fiction who like science woven into character drama. Its draw is the inner world of a brilliant outsider rather than plot-driven suspense.
