Magical mathematics = poetry of numbers + mathematics of words. If such a superb poet as Bina Štampe Žmavc delves into the wonders of mathematics, the result can only be an extraordinary story. Numbers that used to be so puzzling now come to life in a different light. All at once we realise that they share the same fates as people – they can be lonely, in love, fun, patient, fatal, magical and more.
