A NEW YORK TIMES AND NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR A poet, a physicist, and a philosopher explored the greatest enigmas in the universe the nature of free will, the strange fabric of the cosmos, the true limits of the mind and each in their own way uncovered a revelatory truth about our place in the world "[A] mind-expanding book. . . . Elegantly written." The New York Times "A remarkable synthesis of the thoughts, ideas, and discoveries of three of the greatest minds that our species has produced." John Banville, The Wall Street Journal Argentine poet Jorge Luis Borges was madly in love when his life was shattered by painful heartbreak. But the breakdown that followed illuminated an incontrovertible truth that love is necessarily imbued with loss, that the one doesn't exist without the other. German physicist Werner Heisenberg was fighting with the scientific establishment on the meaning of the quantum realm's absurdity when he had his own epiphany that there is no such thing as a complete, perfect description of reality. Prussian philosopher Immanuel Kant pushed the assumptions of human reason to their mind-bending conclusions, but emerged with an idea that crowned a towering philosophical system that the human mind has fundamental limits, and those limits undergird both our greatest achievements as well as our missteps. Through fiction, science, and philosophy, the work of these three thinkers coalesced around the powerful, haunting fact that there is an irreconcilable difference between reality "out there" and reality as we experience it. Out of this profound truth comes a multitude of galvanizing ideas: the notion of selfhood, free will, and purpose in human life; the roots of morality, aesthetics, and reason; and the origins and nature of the cosmos itself. As each of these thinkers shows, every one of us has an incomplete picture of the world. But it's only as mortal, finite beings are we able to experience the world in its richness and breathtaking majesty. A soaring and lucid reflection on the lives and work of Borges, Heisenberg, and Kant, The Rigor of Angels movingly demonstrates that the mysteries of our place in the world may always loom over us not as a threat, but as a reminder of our humble humanity.

It was established in 1946 and was the first Soviet nuclear weapons design and production center. Initially a KB-11 design bureau was established there, that was developing nuclear weapons. Research and design activities began in 1947. During the same year security forced began to build a perimeter across the closed area. In 1947 the city was removed from all official Soviet maps and statistical documents. The isolation of the area was completed by 1948. The existence of this closed city was made public and appeared on the maps only in 1994. This city is a home to two nuclear weapon facilities - design institute and warhead assembly/disassembly facility. Today this city is known as Sarov. It is the main Russian nuclear weapons design and production center. At some point this city was known under various provisional names, including "the installation", Base No. 112, "the site", Site 550, Arzamas-75 (early 1960s-1967), Arzamas-60, Gorkiy-130, Moscow-300, and under other names.

Single leaf, removed from the book. 6½ x 5 inches. A FINE NOTE MENTIONING MAYAKOVSKY AND FRANK O'HARA, WITH A DRAWING, presented to the British actor, author and filmmaker Herbert Marshall (1906-1991). Beneath the title Ginsberg draws the figure of Buddha's footprint: "Three fish with one head a sign of Buddhahood incised in giant stone carving of Buddha footprint found under Bo Tree at Bodh Gaya, mythological Indian site of the Buddha's realization" (Ginsberg, quoted in the Collected Poems 1947-1980). He inscribes the title: "For Mr. H. Marshall on Times Square many years after reading his 1945 translation of Mayakovsky given to me by poet Frank O'Hara Jan 7, 1965." The black stain at the foot of the page may have been added intentionally by Ginsberg. Marshall's compilation, 'Mayakovsky and His Poetry', was first published in London in 1942, and reprinted there in 1945 (the American edition was published four years later). The Russian poet was a great influence on Frank O'Hara, as reflected by Ginsberg in a 1975 lecture at the Naropa Institute: "There's a poem by Frank O'Hara, who taught me Mayakovsky actually, gave me my first book of Mayakovsky, 'A True Account Of Talking To The Sun At Fire Island' [Allen begins] 'The Sun woke me this morning loud/ and clear, saying Hey.' So you see the shift of tone in 50 years. 'Hey!' there's a kind of brusque, boisterous Russian familiarity in Mayakovsky, but then, fifty years later in New York City gossip, funniness, faggotry, camp, 'Personism', the same thing as Mayakovsky. I think O'Hara liked Mayakovsky because Mayakovsky realized that he was as good as the sun. The sun shone, Mayakovsky shone, both were natural objects, both had nothing to fear from their shining. Both shone equally on their own nature, or the poet and the sun both shine equally of their own nature" (archived at Archive org). Ginsberg dedicated a 1981 lecture at Naropa to Mayakovsky and Russian "expansive" poetry. O'Hara was one of the first U.S. poets to delve deeply into Mayakovsky's body of work and share it with other burgeoning poets in the New York scene, spreading his work where it was censored due to the Russian's association with Communism.
