Although I had previously read about Mileva Einstein's possible contribution to the great work by Albert Einstein, this novel came at it from a slightly different perspective. It makes that possibility seem even more likely. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and only wished that Mileva hadn't allowed herself to be pushed to the side as much as she was. Obviously that was how women were treated in that era though we note that Marie Curie was recognized for her contributions to science at the same time. Perhaps she had a more modern husband? Albert Einstein came across as narcissistic and egocentric which was likely what he really was.
