Description
"Boyhood memeories of the Mississippi River Valley and of the printshops of Hannibal are here transformed into a story set in medieval Austria at the dawn of the printing craft. It is a psychic adventure, full of phantasmagoric effects, in which a penniless printer's apprentice - a youthful mysterious stranger with the curious name 44 - gradually reveals his supernatural powers and the hidden possibilities of the human mind." From the book jacket.
