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.

你在灰亂的世界中找尋一份馨香的靈魂，你知不知道，那隻是乾淨的一條綫、安靜的一片白，是最簡單的一個循環。但接受它，竟也需要勇敢。
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Beautifully written and full of touching moments.

评分迴國前看瞭開頭，重新藉到，這次一口氣看完。很久沒看小說，簡直有點難以想像，竟有如此多人情味在數字裏。
