How I Saved Einstein

Cornelia Franz tells an amazing story where the present and the past, exciting adventures, historical facts and scientific theories are intertwined...
It all started on February 28, 2020, on board a luxury transatlantic liner. For twelve-year-old Emily, this luxurious cruise was a birthday present. But the birthday girl has no idea what adventures are in store for her! A meeting with a mysterious stranger - and Emily finds herself in 1913, on board a ship that carries not only rich tourists to America, but also many poor people from all over Europe - in search of a better life. Emily meets other children from the future, who, like herself, ended up in a time loop and are forced to experience disaster over and over again. No matter how hard they try to prevent disaster, history repeats itself every time. Will Emily be able to cope with all the difficulties alone or will she find friends in an unfamiliar world? How not to give herself away and save other unsuspecting passengers? How to break out of this vicious circle and return home? And Professor Einstein, what role does he have in this dangerous journey? And who will save him anyway?
The book fascinatingly describes the adventures of our contemporaries in the past, masterfully recreating the atmosphere of the last peaceful year before the start of the First World War.
