He succeeds, but not exactly in the way he had planned.Four hundred years later, Victor Werker, a Dutch biologist, causes an international uproar when he creates in his laboratory a complex organic clay crystal that can reproduce and has a metabolism. He has, in effect, manufactured a primitive organism out of inorganic materials. Much of his story is told through the letters he writes, via his estranged wife, to his stillborn daughter Aurora; after his unsettling discovery, he roams the world from California to Venice, Cairo, and Jerusalem, pursued by his own inner and outer demons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52199923908896,"sku":"NEW0670910244","price":41.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/31FPHJYMT4L.jpg?v=1786999089","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-procedure-0670910244","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
