Recenzii
'A loving exploration of one of the greatest collaborations of the past century, The Indian Clerk is a novel that brilliantly orchestrates questions of colonialism, sexual identity and the nature of genius'
'Leavitt brings to life a world of maths and mysticism'
'Impressive ... Leavitt plunges us, like Ramanujan, into a world of academic squabbling and wartime privation'
'Excellent ... His Hardy is a superb creation ... The author also synthesises huge amounts of engrossing period gossip ... the snatches of backbiting and shop-talk richly convey the anxieties of the intellectual climate'
