Math is beautiful
Revisado: 08-07-18
The Housekeeper and the Professor made me believe in the power and beauty of mathematics. The premise of a math professor whose memory damage keeps returning him to the 1970/s may seem far-fetched, but this tale of his interactions with his young Housekeeper and her 10-year-old son is strikingly beautiful. The spare novel had me rooting for the trio. Decency, love and empathy shine through.
And the audio reading is top notch. I listen to 100+ books per year and am very particular about narrators who let the story shine rather than make distract you with overly dramatic readings or odd accents or cadences.
