The Theory Of (Not Quite) Everything (Paperback)

A beautiful, warm-hearted and poignant story about two siblings, Art and Mimi Brotherton, who, bound by the tragic death of their parents, find themselves living together as adults with their outlook aligned on not quite everything.

Mimi is living a life constrained by the demands of her genius brother. Art is an esteemed mathematics professor, whose every move is dictated by routine and his pursuit to solve an important, notoriously complicated maths problem. When Mimi decides to find love, Art does the only logical thing: devises a strict mathematical algorithm to help her. But then Mimi meets Frank – a hopeless romantic, stargazer, and also a mathematician, and certainly not algorithm approved. As Art’s mistrust grows, so do Mimi’s feelings, and the siblings’ relationship is tested to breaking point – for something about Frank doesn’t quite add up, and only Art can see it…

In a world where three is an always an odd number, will they be able to reconcile their differences and find the answers they’re hoping for?

For fans of The Rosie Project, The Flatshare and Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, Kara Gnodde’s The Theory of (Not Quite) Everything is a tender, intelligent and uplifting novel about brothers and sisters, true love in all its forms, and how the bonds of family and calculations of the heart are determined to follow a logic all of their own.
