A math professor lives in a world of numbers. After an injury, his brain has only eighty minutes of memory; he remembers no dates, no names, no love, no friendships-nothing but factorials, prime numbers, and equations.
The housekeeper who takes care of him is far from math, but the Professor reveals to her and her son the secret world of numbers, in which simple and understandable quantities are comparable to the scale of the universe. Every morning they get reacquainted with each other. Each of their days is filled with routine, math, baseball, and love. This novel by Yoko Ogawa, one of the most acclaimed writers in contemporary Japan, is about memory, what it means to live in the present, and the mysterious equations that can connect people.
