He is a brilliant math Professor with a peculiar problem--ever 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 every morning, as the Professor and the Housekeeper are introduced to each other anew, a strange and beautiful relationship blossoms between them. Though he cannot hold memories for long (his brain is like a tape that begins to erase itself every eighty minutes), the Professor's mind is still alive with elegant equations from the past. And the numbers, in all of their articulate order, reveal a sheltering and poetic world to both the Housekeeper and her young son. The Professor is capable of discovering connections between the simplest of quantities--like the Housekeeper's shoe size--and the universe at large, drawing their lives ever closer and more profoundly together, even as his memory slips away. "The Housekeeper and the Professor "is an enchanting story about what it means to live in the present, and about the curious equations that can create a family.

你在灰乱的世界中找寻一份馨香的灵魂，你知不知道，那只是干净的一条线、安静的一片白，是最简单的一个循环。但接受它，竟也需要勇敢。
评分A beautiful story about love and friendship.
评分An entirely original moving story in which savoring the past versus living in the moment is being explored while intertwined with mathematics and baseball. However, it is hard for me to conceive how the professor could express some of the depicted emotions towards the Housekeeper's son, given his incapability of accruing memory beyond 80 minutes.
评分emath老师给我借的书。数学部分基本可以忽略，但是老教授出门那一段让我很感慨
评分回国前看了开头，重新借到，这次一口气看完。很久没看小说，简直有点难以想像，竟有如此多人情味在数字里。
