Oof--Einstein, at least as portrayed her, was a DOUCHE. It's really hard to read how abusive and dismissive he was to his partner. Ugh. The historical part of the book is interesting--what it was like to be a young scientist in turn-of-the-century Europe, including the bigotry against Eastern Europeans and Jews.
