{"product_id":"driving-mr-albert-michael-paterniti-9780385333030","title":"Driving Mr. Albert: A Trip Across America with Einstein's Brain","description":"Albert Einstein's brain floats in a Tupperware bowl in a gray duffel bag in the trunk of a Buick Skylark barreling across America. Driving the car is journalist Michael Paterniti. Sitting next to him is an eighty-four-year-old pathologist named Thomas Harvey, who performed the autopsy on Einstein in 1955 -- then simply removed the brain and took it home. And kept it for over forty years. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOn a cold February day, the two men and the brain leave New Jersey and light out on I-70 for sunny California, where Einstein's perplexed granddaughter, Evelyn, awaits. And riding along as the imaginary fourth passenger is Einstein himself, an id-driven genius, the original galactic slacker with his head in the stars. Part travelogue, part memoir, part history, part biography, and part meditation, \u003cb\u003eDriving Mr. Albert\u003c\/b\u003e is one of the most unique road trips in modern literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Paterniti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 038533303X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780385333030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Random House Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/05\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/15\/2001 pg. 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/17\/2001 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/02\/2001 pg. 88","brand":"Michael Paterniti","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43919626371327,"sku":"9780385333030","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e37b3677-5171-404f-a709-4c5798f0fd39.jpg?v=1680810436","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/driving-mr-albert-michael-paterniti-9780385333030","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
