Het kleine heelal

A novel in which Leeuwenhoek as a teenager and Swammerdam, five years younger, knew each other when Leeuwenhoek apprenticed in Amsterdam.

While there is no factual basis to support that premise, this is a novel, so it has no obligation to remain true to historical facts.

Loggem went on to become a prominent science fiction writer.
