About this title

Synopsis

From a wrong number to a friendship that would impact both their lives, Albert Einstein Speaking begins with two unlikely friends―the world’s most respected scientist and a schoolgirl from New Jersey. From their first conversation Mimi Beaufort had a profound effect on Einstein and brought him, in his final years, back to life. In turn, he let her into his world.

Albert Einstein Speaking is the story of an incredible friendship, and of a remarkable life. This riotous, charming and moving novel spans almost a century of European history and shines a light on the real man behind the myth. Blurring the lines between fact and fiction, R.J. Gadney reveals the real Einstein, his loves and losses, his public and private personas.
