What good is a superstitious scientist?
For Krishna Kumar, what starts as a harmless superstition sparks a journey that no scientist could have predicted.
Aged 12, Krishna is recognised as a child prodigy and gets a prestigious scholarship to St. Sebastian's, a Himalayan boarding school, uprooting him from his Bombay home. There, he discovers his gift for physics and an all-consuming superstitious streak that he believes helps his academic career. A PhD scholarship at an early age to the UK's top Rushbridge University seems almost inevitable, but disaster strikes at the last minute.
With his star burned out, he returns to Bombay believing that this path is now closed. But when he's asked to mentor Naveen, a young maths prodigy, his past comes hurtling back to remind him of duty and destiny. Can he face his demons and confront darker practices in the academic world to salvage a new life for himself? And what does Schrödinger's Cat have to do with any of this?
Beginning in 1970s India, Schrödinger's Cat May or May Not Have Been Here is a heartwarming story about loss, rejection and finding your place in the world.
