Description
Each morning, the Professor and the Housekeeper are introduced to one another. The Professor may not remember what he had for breakfast, but his mind is still alive with elegant mathematical equations from the past. He devises clever maths riddles - based on her shoe size or her birthday - and the numbers reveal a sheltering and poetic world to both the Housekeeper and her ten-year-old son.
With each new equation, the three lost souls forge an affection more mysterious than imaginary numbers, and a bond that runs deeper than memory. VINTAGE JAPANESE CLASSICS - five masterpieces of Japanese fiction in gorgeous new gift editions.

The Housekeeper and the Professor - Purchase Review
I placed an order on February 28th and received the book on April 5th. I'm extremely thankful to the CS team for their outstanding support and prompt responses to my emails and texts throughout the ordering and waiting process. The book arrived in perfect condition, securely packaged without any dents or creases. I'm definitely planning to order from Empire Bookstore again in the future. Many thanks!
