The Smithsonian Institution is a surreal narrative of quantum physics, string theory, clones, the sexual habits of Eskimos, and the domestic arrangements of various U.S. presidents. It's Good Friday 1939, and a teenage math prodigy is mysteriously summoned to the Smithsonian Institution, to aid in the development of the atom bomb. The preternaturally gifted teenager holds the key to the secrets of nuclear fission and breakthroughs in the fourth dimension.
