The Late summer Passion of a Woman of Mind by Rebecca Goldstein Book PDF Summary
The liberation of Eva Mueller, a middle-aged German-American professor of philosophy, does not come easy. Having lived in the self-protected world of the intellect all her life, she must first submerge herself in the unhappy reality of her past--recalling that her father, a German musicologist, was a Nazi accomplice. Eva's acceptance of her past and of the validity of her emotions is sparked by her unlikely relationship with Michael, an enthusiastic if callow young student.
