Shao Lin

Character from The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin

Ye Zhetai's wife and a physicist in her own right, who saved her own life during the Cultural Revolution by climbing onto the struggle-session stage and denouncing her husband as a reactionary.

Also known as: Mother Ye

What They Know

• She is a trained physicist who can speak the technical language of her husband's field — which is what made her denunciation devastating
• Her father accompanied Einstein on Nanjing Road in Shanghai in 1922 and studied physics because of him
• She betrayed her husband publicly to save herself, and she will betray her daughter the same way if pressed
