"The writing of a book like this about someone with extraordinary intellectual gifts requires an author who is similarly endowed, lest the book come off flat and cheesy. But this is a thoughtful, strange, yet touchingly humane tale. Aristotle famously said that "there was never a genius without a tincture of madness," but Andrew Colameco's wonderful novel allows us entrance into the mind of a genius with a tenderness and humanity rarely seen." ~Steven Gimbel, author of Einstein: His Space and Times

Autorenporträt
Andy Colameco never finished high school-yet graduated with honors from Temple University. Despite being told he had learning disabilities while growing up, Andy was later accepted into Harvard's Ph.D. program for physics-which he turned down to teach high school science in Vermont. In 1984, he finished Einstein Doesn't Throw Dice, which he'd later submit to The Brautigan Library for unpublished manuscripts. In 2003, Andy died of leukemia. This is his first published novel.
