Meister Zacharius

Meister Zacharius

by Jules Verne

Meister Zacharius, ein berühmter Uhrmacher in Genf, sieht sich mit einem rätselhaften Problem konfrontiert: Seine Uhren beginnen unerklärlicherweise falsch zu gehen und stehen schließlich ganz still. Je mehr Uhren stillstehen, desto schwächer wird er und sein Verstand beginnt zu schwanken. Ein Zusammenhang zwischen den Uhren und seinem Leben scheint zu bestehen. Als Meister Zacharius krank wird, hinterfragt er die Natur der Zeit, die Grenzen der menschlichen Kontrolle und die Bedeutung seiner eigenen Existenz.
