A cynic might call Tesla's life a perfectly formed metaphor for US-European relations. His dislike of the cultures of American interventionism led him to reject institutional American support for his research, but his unwillingness to accept it led to financial destitution. Although this is ultimately a work of fiction, its resonance in contemporary politics is clear.

Review:
"A novel aflame with the energy of a singular life. . . . Pistalo's potent imagination allows him to see beyond the events into Tesla's tortured heart, exposing the proud visionary's existential fears and his strange delusions... Thanks to talented translators, English-speaking readers now share a prize-winning Serbian masterpiece." --Booklist

"A compelling fictionalized account of inventor Nikola Tesla's inscrutable and solitary life... Pistalo's thorough account of a great man's personality and habits is done to fine effect." --Publishers Weekly
About the Author:
Vladimir Pistalo has published eleven books of fiction. Tesla, his first book to be translated into English, won the 2008 NIN Literary Award, the most prestigious award in Serbia, and has appeared in ten languages. He teaches at Becker College in Massachusetts.
