Really interesting book — hard to know what's real vs. fiction but it's enjoyable nonetheless. Would appreciate if it were more technical in certain parts, e.g., the chapter on Grothendieck. It also felt like a meditation on Germany's history in the 20th century, given how many of the book characters are German.
