Description
“Math has proven the existence of God, because it is absolute and without contradiction; but the devil must exist as well, because we cannot prove it.” ~ Yoko Ogawa
In this episode, I discuss the book “The Housekeeper and the Professor” with Srishti Khurana. The book is based on a quirky character who loses memory every 80 minutes.
In addition to the story involving the lives of the housekeeper, her child and the bond which they share with the professor, the author manages to philosophize about math and truth.
The book is a great read for those who hated math and failed to see it as an artistic pursuit. This conversation might just egg you to pick this book.
