“The ratio of forces” is a book about sincere love and fidelity, about the fortress of the spirit and courage, about painstaking scientific searches and brilliant discoveries. Many plot lines are intertwined into one, and, it would seem, scattered biographies become part of one amazing story. Masha is a talented ballerina who is interested in Stalin himself. Ilya is Masha’s husband and an employee of the NKVD, who has not lost nobility and common sense. Mark Semenovich Mazur is a famous radiophysicist, exiled to Irkutsk. Karl Rikhardovich Stern is a teacher of future Soviet spies. Mazur tells a friend about the only way to quickly obtain uranium on an industrial scale. Meanwhile, in Germany, young scientists Emma and Herman are also set up experiments. Who will be the first to create an atomic bomb? Who will take responsibility for billions of lives? What is more important: to be recognized or be a person?
