One protagonist is a writer and math teacher....
 
He sez: math is "all too natural' to him. It's just there." 
And 
'Real life is different from math. Things in life don't necessarily flow over the the shortest possible route" [as math does]. 
Ye old single-upped linearity rears itself here...........
 
 He writes "to confirm without a doubt--[He redefines Descartes.--MK.]--that this person known as 'me' exists in this world."
