Just finished a really cool book called "When We Cease To Understand The World" by Benjamin Labatut. The premise is quite interesting, and I found it also incredibly strange at times as well. It focuses largely on the great minds in physics and science in the late 1800s, early 1900s, as well as present day. In telling their stories he weaves historical fact with extremely creative fiction. I won't give much away but if you like science, relativity and quantum theory, history, and something strange, then this is definitely for you.
