"I have a book that appeared in 2016, called Mademoiselle Haas. There were so many men in 121 Days that I decided to write a book about women! Mademoiselle Haas is about women working in Paris in the 1930s. None of them are mathematicians—at that time there were very few women mathematicians. And I have another book that will appear in September this year, about the Paris Commune in 1871. It has nothing to do with mathematics, although there are some mathematicians in it."
