Mathematician with the Soul of a Poet is much more than the translations of the nine poems and two plays written by Sofia Kovalevskaya. It includes the story of why and how a math professor, artist and poet wanted to and was able to develop the translations, when, in the beginning, she did not even know the sounds or order of the letters in the Russian alphabet. It is also an introduction to the life of an amazing woman - the first woman to earn a PhD in mathematics. At a time when women were forbidden to take classes at universities or even to set foot inside the buildings, Sofia Kovalevskaya managed to open the doors through which generations of women have now passed on the way to pursuing their own interests and developing their own talents. Her story is worth telling, worth hearing and worth remembering.
