"Mesmerizing...an exquisite rendering of what one might call feelings at the subatomic level." -The New York Times
From the international bestselling author of Like Family, a sensational novel about whether a "prime number" can ever truly connect with someone else
A prime number is a lonely thing. It can only be divided by itself or by one, and it never truly fits with another. Alice and Mattia are both "primes"-misfits haunted by early tragedies. When the two meet as teenagers, they recognize in each other a kindred, damaged spirit. Years later, a chance encounter reunites them and forces a lifetime of concealed emotion to the surface. But can two prime numbers ever find a way to be together? A brilliantly conceived and elegantly written debut novel, The Solitude of Prime Numbers is a stunning meditation on loneliness, love, and what it means to be human.
I found this book on the discount shelves of a local used book store.
