博士の愛した数式 [新潮CD]

He is a brilliant math professor, with a peculiar problem--since a traumatic head injury, he has lived with only eighty minutes of short-term memory. She is an astute young housekeeper with a ten-year-old son who is hired to care for him. And between them a strange, beautiful relationship blossoms. Though the professor can hold new memories for only eighty minutes, his mind is still alive with elegant equations from the past; and through him, the numbers, in all of their articulate order, reveal a sheltering and poetic world to both the housekeeper and her son. <br /><br /><i>The Housekeeper and the Professor </i>is an enchanting story about what it means to live in the present, and about the curious equations that can create a family where one before did not exist.
