Marie Benedict, author of The Other Einstein
“Superb…the haunting story of Einstein’s brilliant first wife who was lost in his shadow.” --Sue Monk Kidd, New York Times bestselling author of The Invention of Wings, The Secret Life of Bees, and The Mermaid Chair
“Could the theory of relativity actually have been conceived by ‘the other Einstein’? In this fascinating and thoughtful novel, we learn that this is more than possible.” --B.A. Shapiro, New York Times bestselling author of The Art Forger and The Muralist
The Other Einstein is the story of Einstein's Wife, a brilliant physicist in her own right, whose contribution to the special theory of relativity is hotly debated and may have been inspired by her own profound and very personal insight. It offers us a window into a brilliant, fascinating woman whose light was lost in Einstein's enormous shadow.
