The work of Turing and his colleagues at Hut 8 created what became known as the "bombe", which descrambled the German navy's messages and saved countless lives and millions in British goods and merchandise. Despite his heroics, however, Turing led a secret life as a homosexual. After a young man with whom he was involved stole money from him, he went to the police, where he confessed his homosexuality; he was charged with gross indecency, and only avoided prison after agreeing to undergo chemical castration. Tragically, he committed suicide two years later. Authors Liberge and Delalande used once-classified information only available in 2012 to create a biography that is scientifically rigorous yet understandable for the lay reader. It's also a meticulous depiction of World War II, and an intimate portrayal of a gay man living in an intolerant world. Delving deeper into Turing's life than The Imitation Game, this graphic novel is a fascinating portrait of this brilliant, complicated, and troubled man. 521 8 Rated PA 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Turing, Alan Mathison,|d1912-1954|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Mathematicians|zGreat Britain|vBiography|vComics books, strips, etc. 650 0 Cryptographers|zGreat Britain|vBiography|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 0 Gay men|zGreat Britain|vBiography|vComic books, strips, etc. 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Graphic novels.|2lcgft 655 7 Comic books, strips, etc.|2gsafd 700 1 Delalande, Arnaud,|eillustrator. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 11885836?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ csp_9781551526522_180.jpeg
