Born in Poland into a family of moderate means, Marie Curie earned Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry for her ground-breaking research into radioactivity and radium.
In this fascinating biography, Sydney Srinivas intertwines the science, the scientist and the person. Mother of two young children and bereft by the untimely death of her husband Pierre, Marie fought sorrow, pain and loneliness. Snubbed as a foreigner by the Parisian society, she was offered France's greatest honour.
Srinivas' pilgrimages to the Marie Curie Museums in Warsaw and Paris bring authenticity and feeling to this compassionate work.
