Elizabeth Finch - Julian Barnes

I read this book when I was down with a cold so I feel I didn't give it the best chance as I was struggling to concentrate, but it wasn't my favourite read.

Elizabeth Finch was a teacher, but to some she felt more like an inspiration or an icon. Her teaching was more niche and she guided her students to become thinkers. After she dies, her former student Neil is given her papers in her will and he unpacks her years of passion and ideas. One of which centres on J - Julian the Apostate, Elizabeth's historical soulmate.

As I said I struggled through this book. I'm going to put it down to illness but I don't think I'll be picking it up for a second read.
