I liked the book but couldn't recognize much value in it. It's probably me, not the book.

Symmetry and the Monster : One of the Greatest Quests of Mathematics by Mark Ronan

Review of 'Toshnota' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

I'm confused with the content. The environment descriptions are odd. The problem of existence doesn't make sense unless you are bored enough to reflect on the meaning of life. The author is sad because his girlfriend Annie has broken with him. (Probably Annie has got a mental illness, i couldn't get it.) Then the depressive mind tries to find the answer for a question that has never been asked.

I rate it 2/5 instead of 1/5 for the word "penis" in it.
