The title of this book tells the
story. It is a retelling of the lives of
the women who were married to the scientists who invented the atom bomb. The
story begins with their summons to drop their current lives and move to Los
Alamos, New Mexico. It ends with the
conclusion of the project and their moves back into society.
The cadence of the story is
hypnotizing. The manner in which Nesbit chose to write the stories of the women
is unique and fascinating.
I thought this was an extremely well
written and interesting book. I would highly recommend it.
