Introducing “The Rosie Effect”—the audiobook version of the sequel to Graeme Simsion’s world bestseller “The Rosie Project.” This book is recommended for reading by Bill Gates.
As in the previous book, the main character is a young Australian genetic scientist Don Tillman, who doesn’t seem like everyone else. Despite the features of his thinking and perception, Don wants to be happy. He is married to the charming medical professional Rosie, and their life is cozy and measured: a blueberry muffin from the bakery “Blue Sky,” Pinot Grigio from “Elk Bay,” and lunches with friends. But the message from his wife that Don will become a father turns out to be an explosion for him! The genetic scientist frantically builds tables and charts, designs a special diet for Rosie, observes the children’s behavior, filming them on camera… But in this romantic comedy everything happens not quite the way we might expect.
The literary debut of the Australian IT specialist Graeme Simsion took place in 2014. The novel “The Rosie Project” became a worldwide sensation: publishing houses from 39 countries fought for the right to print it, and all leading film companies in the world fought for the right to adapt it (Sony Pictures won).
