About This Novel

"Collected Works of John Banville" brings together six core works of Irish literary master Banville: "Dr. Copernicus", "Kepler", "Newton's Letters", "Mephistopheles", "Birch Grove" and "Daydreams". Among them, "Dr. Copernicus", "Kepler" and "Newton's Letters" belong to the "Science Trilogy" series, which is Banville's classic exploration of the integration of science and literature in the early stages of his creative career. This series of novels vividly restores the turning moments in the history of human thought through the interweaving of fiction and historical facts, establishing the unique intellectual charm and aesthetic style of Banville's science fiction. Banville perfectly integrates Nabokov's language aesthetics and Beckett's existential anxiety. In the collision of fiction and truth, he builds a cold, dazzling and profound intellectual labyrinth for readers. This collection of works is a quiet yet devastating critique of empiricism. It declares the false reputation of theory, but allows real life to surge out from the cracks in the order.
