This is not a biography

Revisado: 08-25-24

Perhaps if you are a feminist and you wish to strike one for the girls then this is the book for you. The author note states she did not intend to detract from Einstein Legacy but quite specifically did that. My research tho brief into whether the story is based on fact suggest otherwise. Einsteins letters to his colleagues seem to suggest he was the driving force of his discovery and invention. As well as his “layman’s book “ he wrote . Of course we cannot be sure that she didn’t play a specific enlarge part in the development of the theory and perhaps that is the reason the author took the liberty to craft a study showing that Einstein was a bit of a charlatan.
For this reason I sped through the book but wouldn’t really recommend it to a serious science loving Reader.

Intimate encounter

Revisado: 06-28-24

To be honest, just as Salman Rushdie suggested, i knew more about the book that I hadn’t read (the satanic verses) that I should admit.
His name to me was associated with the book and I thought I may as well give a shot to hear more about thischap. And you cannot but end the book with a deep respect and, sense of friendship and admiration for this unique person who is so kind and thoughtful and educated And so able to communicate with his readers. Now, I am definitely going to read one or more other of his books. If you have not read any others I would suggest that this is one you should read in order to get to know the person. I feel I have had the opportunity to meet a real human being that I would choose to introduce an alien race as a representative of the best of us. His writing is amazing, his narrating is superb, and I thoroughly enjoyed this quality interesting lovely book.

Excellent

Wonderful story and narration
A little predictable or formulaic however, that should not detract. Little bit like a lifetime movie. But also shines the light on terrible travesty of addiction but also shows post-traumatic growth can occur. And is clear that Hope always remains.

Wonderful

Revisado: 04-05-23

I didn’t expect this one to be as good as Shantaram . However, it certainly was as entertaining and enjoyable and at times thought-provoking.
I would not hesitate to get this book.

Phenomenal

Revisado: 01-24-23

Phenomenal book. Phenomenally narrated. Must read by physicians and lay people alike. If you’re early in your medical career, this one may perhaps even serve to redirect the trajectory of your chosen specialty.

Transporting

Revisado: 12-16-22

Who ever would’ve thought that a book that was 40 hours could be as captivating, transporting as this one. The author is an absolute poet and a master of writing. The narrator is superb. So easy to listen to so amazing since he absolutely envelops you in the experience conjured by the author.
It is one of the very best audiobooks I have ever read.
I’m going to search for books by this author as well as books, narrated by this narrator.

Wow

Revisado: 02-22-22

If I could give the narrator six stars I would. Phenomenal. What a lovely transporting short journey of escapism. But then again if I could give the Author six stars I would do that too. What erudite elegant wonderful language he uses to paint a story more vivid probably than the picture about which the story revolves. I enjoyed it so much and wasn’t disappointed that it was a novella which I tend to avoid in general. Although I am not as educated as I would like to be, he has the talent and the creativity of someone like Somerset Maugham. How enjoyable! do yourself a favour It is wonderful.
