A
charming,
witty novella by
Alan Lightman, containing fictional "dreams" that
Albert Einstein might have been dreaming when he was working as a
patent clerk, writing his
theory of relativity.
This is one of those
mind-warping books, that permanently change your brain while you read them,
bending your outlook on the world around you. A must read for anyone with any
small modicum of intellectual curiousity, quite satisfying and interesting at the same time.
