| True events are fictionalized into a novel about young sweethearts whose lives are changed drastically by World War II. Sarah, who was studying math with the intention of returning to their midwestern town and becoming a teacher, is sent to Washington DC to work as a "code breaker". One of the messages she decodes just happens to be about a Japanese ship on which her boyfriend Sam is being held as a POW. |

Where are the new works of mathematical fiction?: As you can see from this chronological listing, this database includes many works of mathematical fiction for each year from 1990 to 2025. Strangely, only two are listed for 2026, so far. Either less mathematical fiction is being published than in previous years or I'm just having more trouble finding it. If you know of any works of fiction that should be added to this list, especially recently published ones, please let me know. (Keep in mind that I do not include self-published works or children's fiction that just covers elementary mathematical concepts.) Thanks!
