I'm going crazy looking for a book. All I remember is that it has three names on the cover (maybe Goethe is one of them? Another one might be a mathematician?) and is losely related to the god formula or something like that. I know this isn't too helpful but the book is well known so maybe someone can help me out.

Are you supposed to read in groups

>wrote my story over the course of the last two years
>the main two characters' names aren't real names and it took me a while to finalize them because I went for something memorable, relevant to the story, unique, meaningful etc
>did a ton of research and googling to confirm that the names are rare and unique and would lead back to my story
>today see a new story by someone and it features those exact two names

>I have been the confidant of an honourable assassin who killed women, not to rob them, but to ravish them. His trick was to manage things so that his sexual climax coincided exactly with the death-spasm of the woman: ‘At those moments,’ he told me, ‘I imagined I was a God, creating a world!”
-The Torture Garden, 1899
