The story about the professor whose memory stopped in 1975 and can't go beyond last 80 minutes and the relationships with his housekeeper , her son and his sister-in-law is a touching tale about love, friendship and coping with lack of your own past. It is written in wonderful language that skilfully shows the beuty of mathematics.
