I really, really loved this one. I remember coming across Nannerl Mozart once and having a similar thought about her. It was also around the same time that I came across a Mary Somerville and became obsessed with her and how she was able to breakthrough with her genius at a time that was, for obvious reasons, quite difficult. So I pursued a Mary’s story and abandoned Mozart. Now, that feels quite meta.

Thank you for telling the story—it’s an important one, and so well written, as always.
