About this listen

Bennett "Benito" Lang is a young scientist who seeks solace in the precise and irrefutable laws of physics, only to find he cannot escape his own humanity. But he is about to discover love, betrayal, and a whole spectrum of mortal phenomena. Soon, he will be forced to face the unpredictable everyday reality he evades - and to learn from it.

heartbreaking

the portrait of one character, an unusual one. i quite liked this book, it made me nostalgic in relation to a few people i have met, very similar to this character, all incredibly absorbed by work beyond what humanity offers, more comfortable...and happy in the world of abstract and logic. i think it was written nicely, to bring the right feel for the character, a bit disconnected and detached.
one person's life highlights are not necessarily the same with another person's, even if they were side by side, things do not look the same to all people, and some can appear very cryptic, strange or without emotion to others, who are used to perceiving the world in a more common way, or who absorb the culture of a community they grow up in differently.
