✦ Synopsis

SAINT JOAN OF NEW YORKΒ is a novel about a math prodigy who becomes obsessed with discovering the Theory of Everything. Joan Cooper, a 17-year-old genius traumatized by the death of her older sister, tries to rebuild her shattered world by studying string theory and the efforts to unify the laws of physics. But as she tackles the complex equations, she falls prey to disturbing visions of a divine being who wants to help her unveil the universe's mathematical design. Joan must enter the battle between science and religion, fighting for her sanity and a new understanding of the cosmos.
