It is a difficult task to read a fictional account of real historical people and events and keep in mind that things might not have happened the way depicted in the book. Reading this, you might find yourself feeling angry at Mileva Maric Einstein for being such a doormat or at Einstein for being the most deplorable *sshole. Either way, it is a challenge to continue reading in those circumstances but not to let it color what you can say is historically true.
