Book cover for Uncle Petros and Goldbach's Conjecture: A Novel of Mathematical Obsession
The moral of my evening emerged with crystal clarity: mathematics was something infinitely more interesting than solving second-degree equations or calculating the volumes of solids, the menial tasks at which we laboured at school.

... This is a book I had read a few years back, and happened to read again a few days ago. Absolutely marvelous. To be completely honest, it should serve as a reminder to what NOT to do if one aspires to be a Mathematician. P. S. You do not need to understand profound mathematical ideas in order to enjoy this one.

“And when I die bury me upside down so the whole world can
Kiss my ass
Open my mouth
Pull my tongue
Stretch my arms
Stretch my cold, proud middle finger”

Cecelia Ahern
“Finding someone you love and loves you back is a wonderful feeling. But finding a true soulmate is an even better feelin. A soulmate is someone who understands you like no other will be there for you forever no matter what.”
Cecelia Ahern, P.S. I Love You

Tana French
“I've always loved strong women, which is lucky for me because once you're over about twenty-five there is no other kind. Women blow my mind. The stuff that routinely gets done to them would make most men curl up and die, but women turn to steel and keep on coming. Any man who claims he's not into strong women is fooling himself mindless; he's into strong women who know how to pout prettily and put on baby voices, and who will end up keeping his balls in her makeup bags.”
Tana French, Faithful Place
