I'm actually spinning it all to reflect a trip that Alberts father made where he ended up bedding a young, off key, lady and got her pregnant. She ended up birthing a child at the loss of her own life. Through circumstances, the child gains knowledge that there is a possiblility that his half brother is in fact Alber Einstein. The young boys name is Frank with a last name I have yet to create along with much of his identity. Of course when he finally realizes he is likely an Einstein he changes his name and we end up with Frank Einstein.
History also plays a roll in this as the times don't exactly work if you compare the two timeframes but I think I have innocent enough ways to tie them together. Anyway, Frank is a Forrest Gump type with a good heart but not very swift and through his own experimentation becomes something viewed by others as a monster. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to pull as much emotion from the reader as possible. The goals are horror, disgust, sympathy, love, admiration and sadness.
