This is a tough story, the poor character of Albert Einstein is revealed, and the excruciating story of his genius wife Mileva explored. She's in all ways an equal & capable woman whose feminist ideals would be familiar to anyone today. The author's opinions leak through, in some very questionable moments, but this very dark tale is otherwise worth the read. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"In 1902 an illegitimate daughter was born to Albert Einstein."--BOOK JACKET. "In 1903 she canished."--BOOK JACKET. "The discovery in 1986 of early love letters between Albert Einstein and Mileva Maric, the woman who would become his first wife, revealed the birth of the child named Lieserl. But after a 1903 letter, there is no more mention of her. With nearly nine decades between the birth and our knowledge of the birth, and with scant clues as to the course of her life, the fate of Lieserl Maric Einstein remained a mystery."--BOOK JACKET. "In many respects, the story of Lieserl is inextricably linked to that of her mother, Mileva Maric, whose own story, as author Michele Zackheim came to learn, was vigilantly guarded for generations by her extended family in Serbia, whose confidence Zackheim had to earn before they would part with family secrets."--BOOK JACKET."After five years of travel to Serbian villages wracked by years of strife, painstaking forays into the labyrinth of Central European record-keeping, and hundreds of kitchen-table conversations; after following every lead and every flicker of intuition, and with the support of an international network of women, Michele Zackheim, in this account, has answered the question of what became of Lieserl Maric Einstein. Bound to be controversial, stunningly dramatic, Einstein's Daughter is more than the story of its conclusion; it is a story of the century - of fame and obscurity, love and betrayal, pretenders and protectors; of legends, lies, promises, and unbearable truths."--BOOK JACKET.
