The Mathematician's Shiva by Stuart Rojstaczer - Finally. A novel for mathematicians. I just read the reviews on the back cover after finishing the book, and it turns out that many readers found this to be hilarious. I didn't mind reading it, but didn't love it either - or so I thought until I started writing this review. I think I liked this story much more than I knew - although the characters seemed somehow at a distance, it turns out that I got to know and like them all. So yes, a thumbs up, and you may like it when you're actually reading it, unlike me, who didn't know she liked it until she was finished. Kind of like piano lessons, languages and school in general.
