I
got this book as a surprise birthday gift and enjoyed reading it,
though I disagree with the main premise; namely that genuis can be
lost to the world if it cannot flourish because of worldly
circumstances. I don't believe any true talent, or genius, is ever
lost, because it is always derived from a larger whole. What doesn't
emerge in one place (or person) will eventually find expression
someplace else. The story is well told though, and provides lots of
food for thought.
