The Polish translation of
The Einstein Girl was published last month, with this rather elegant (and historically authentic) cover. The title in Polish is actually
The Einstein Case, because to translate the original title word-for-word produces something indistinguishable from
Einstein’s Girlfriend – which is definitely not what was intended. My polish publishers, Książnice, originally suggested
Einstein’s Daughter, but for me that was too on-the-nose – as well as being the title of a non-fiction book published a few years ago in America.
In terms of the number of titles published, Poland has been my most faithful market to date. In all, seven out of eight of my books have been published there. That’s more even than the UK. Perhaps there is some faint Slavic strain running through my prose ... or maybe that's just the luck of the draw!
