I, Ada

A wonderfully witty and poignant portrayal of the young life of Ada Lovelace, the 19th-century mathematician who is hailed as the world’s first computer programmer.

The daughter of England’s most famous (and notorious) poet, Ada is raised on a diet of mathematics and French verbs by her strict mother. But Ada’s imagination flies free nevertheless. As she grows up, Ada is desperate to learn more – of love and passion, of science and stories, and the full truth about her long-lost father Lord Byron.

Then Ada meets a man whose invention might just change the world – and he needs her visionary brilliance to bring it to life . . .

The true story of the tumultuous teenage years of Ada Lovelace, the 19th Century mathematician who is hailed as the world’s first computer programmer.
