"In her intensely researched, inventively drawn exploration of Marie Curie's life, artist Alice Milani follows the celebrated Polish scientist from Curie's time as a struggling governess to her years in France making breakthrough discoveries. Curie was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences. With skill and care, Milani traces Curie's flight from Russia-controlled Poland, her romance with fellow scientist Pierre Curie, and Marie and Pierre's stunning discoveries of the elements radium and polonium. Throughout this distinctive graphic work, Curie defies doubt and double standards to make an enduring impact on the scientific world."--Amazon No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

The art is roughly sketched and vague with colors that sometimes get random and splotchy.
Unpleasant to look at and read, but I felt like I learned a little bit. Mostly, it depressed me to think how Curie's discovery of radium would lead to her own death and those of the poor unsuspecting workers whose story is told in Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women (a much better book).
