Книга: Einstein Girl, The
Two months before Adolf Hitler's rise to power, a beautiful young woman is found naked and near death in the woods outside Berlin. When she finally emerges from a coma, she can remember nothing, not even her own name. The only clue to her identity is a handbill found nearby, advertising a public lecture by Albert Einstein: 'On the Present State of Quantum Theory'. A gripping and atmospheric historical thriller set in Berlin in 1932, inspired by documents recently discovered about Einstein's family. Thirty years after his death, private correspondence between Albert Einstein and his first wife, the Serbian mathematician Mileva Maric, was opened to public scrutiny for the first time. It revealed glimpses of a tragedy at the heart of their troubled marriage: a secret they went to extraordinary lengths to keep hidden from the world.
