The narrator is her student, the somewhat dimwitted but diligent Neil. The siren is Elizabeth Finch, a teacher of adult education courses in London two decades ago. These qualities may not scream “racy” or “seductive” or “exotic” to you, but you are not the narrator of Julian Barnes’s 25th book. A discreet brooch pinned to her blouse, a formal manner of speaking, a keen interest in antiquity and a tendency to suffer from migraines.
A woman dressed in brown suede brogues and a below-the-knee skirt, her legs obscured by stockings. $26.Īre you prepared for a vision of sizzling sexuality? Picture this. ELIZABETH FINCH By Julian Barnes 178 pages.
