Most twenty-year-olds are wives by now, not studying physics at an elite Zurich university with only male students trying to outdo her clever calculations. Mitza Maric has always been a little different from other girls. Was she simply Einstein's sounding board, an assistant performing complex mathematical equations? Or did she contribute something more? This novel resurrects Einstein's wife, a brilliant physicist in her own right, whose contribution to the special theory of relativity is hotly debated. In the tradition of Beatriz Williams and Paula McClain, Marie Benedict's The Other Einstein offers us a window into a brilliant, fascinating woman whose light was lost in Einstein's enormous shadow. Theirs becomes a partnership of the mind and of the heart, but there might not be room for more than one genius in a marriage.From beloved New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Marie Benedict comes the story of a not-so-famous scientist who not only loved Albert Einstein, but also shaped the theories that brought him lasting renown. And then fellow student Albert Einstein takes an interest in her, and the world turns sideways. But Mitza is smart enough to know that, for her, math is an easier path than marriage. It 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.
Poe, The Other Einstein offers us a window into a brilliant, fascinating woman whose light was lost in Einstein's enormous shadow.
