內容簡介 The Sunday Times Bestseller from the Winner of the Booker Prize She will change the way you see the world . . . ’I’ll remember Elizabeth Finch when most other characters I’ve met this year have faded’ The Times Elizabeth Finch was a teacher, a thinker, an inspiration. Neil is just one of many who fell under her spell during his time in her class. Tasked with unpacking her notebooks after her death, Neil encounters once again Elizabeth’s astonishing ideas on the past and on how to make sense of the present. But Elizabeth was much more than a scholar. Her secrets are waiting to be revealed . . . and will change Neil’s view of the world forever. ’Enthralling . . . A connoisseur and master of irony himself, [Barnes] fills this book with instances of its exhilarating power’ Sunday Times ’A lyrical, thoughtful and intriguing exploration of love, grief and the collective myths of history’ Booklist
