The only female student in her class — and head and shoulders above the boys — math whiz Marguerite Hoffman is a PhD candidate at Paris’s prestigious Ecole Normale Supérieure, an institution legendary for its genius quotient. Not only does Marguerite love math, it’s her entire life, and she’s determined to prove the famously unsolved Goldbach Conjecture. However, when an equally brilliant transfer student from Oxford points out a flaw in her hypothesis during a seminar presentation before specialists in her field, Marguerite’s entire world is shaken, all her certainties vanish, and the insecure brainiac decides to drop out of school. Nevertheless, it seems that mathematics has a different fate in store for her.
