Relativity
By Mark St. GermainRelativity
By Mark St. GermainIn 1902, Albert Einstein had a daughter. Two years later she disappeared, and was never mentioned again.
What happened? There is no definitive answer and there are as many theories as there are Einstein scholars. Relativity imagines one theory while exploring the two contradictory Albert Einsteins: the beloved Public Figure, and a stunningly different Private Einstein.
Effortless charm, wit, and passion
