«Gut Symmetries» is the literary fiction novel by Jeanette Winterson, published by Granta Books in 1997 in hardback (240 pages, in English).
Alice, an English theoretical physicist, begins a relationship with Jove, her seductive American colleague, who is married; upon meeting his wife Stella, Alice falls in love with her. Winterson rewrites the romantic triangle in a post-Einstein universe, combining quantum physics, alchemy, string theory, desire and memory in a non-linear narrative.
It is Jeanette Winterson's sixth novel and was longlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction in 1997.
For readers of contemporary literary fiction and LGBT narrative, with an interest in stories that intertwine science, love and desire.
