SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE directed by Marjane Sartrapi, starring Rosamund Pike and Sam Riley.
Far more than an art book or a graphic novel, Radioactive is a stunning visual biography and a true work of art..
A haunting and wondrous portrait of one of history\'s most intriguing figures, Radioactive combines archival photos, images, and clippings with dazzling line drawings and a compelling narrative to tell Curie\'s story.
Through brilliant visual storytelling, Redniss walks us through Curie\'s life, which was marked by extraordinary scientific discovery and dramatic personal trauma-- from her complex working and romantic relationship with Pierre Curie, to their discovery of two new scientific elements, to Pierre\'s tragic death, to Marie\'s two Nobel Prizes. -- Malcolm Gladwell Radioactive is the mesmerizing, landmark illustrated biography of Marie Curie, by acclaimed author and artist Lauren Redniss.
NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST Vivid and ethereal -New York Times Radioactive is quite unlike any book I have ever read--part history, part Love story, part art work and all parts sheer imaginative genius.
