The Wives of Los Alamos by TaraShea Nesbit

4.0

I'm fascinated by the history of Los Alamos and the Manhattan Project. This is an unconventional book: it's really more of a history than a novel, told in the first person plural from the point of view of the wives of the scientists and engineers whose families were uprooted and moved to The Hill. The author does a good job of connecting the reader to the isolation and strangeness of the town of Los Alamos.
