He is a brilliant math professor with a peculiar problem - ever since a traumatic mind accident, he has resided with only 80 minutes of short-term memory space. She is an astute young housekeeper - with a 10-year-old son-who is hired to care for the professor. And every morning, as the professor and the housekeeper are introduced to the other person anew, a strange and beautiful relationship blossoms between them. Though he cannot maintain remembrances for long (his brain is like a tape that commences to remove itself every 80 minutes), the professor's mind is still alive with graceful equations from the past. And the quantities, in all with their articulate order, disclose a sheltering and poetic world to both housekeeper and her young son. The professor is with the capacity of discovering connections between the simplest of amounts - like the housekeeper's shoe size - and the universe at large, drawing their lives ever closer plus more profoundly together, even as his memory space slips away. Yoko Ogawa's The Housekeeper and the Teacher can be an enchanting story about what this means to live in the present, and about the wondering equations that can create a family.
