About This Novel
"I hope you will be interested in this course, and I mean real fun, serious fun. Fun and seriousness are not inconsistent. My name is Elizabeth Finch, thank you." Almost everyone fell in love with her, including Neil, who was about thirty-five years old. The first time he came to her class, he vaguely knew that for the first time in his life, he was in the right place. Twenty years later, Yiffin died, and Neil inherited Yiffin's documents and book collection. He hoped to write a biography of Ifine, and the result was this portrait-cum-memoir and the final essay he failed to deliver: on Julian, the last pagan emperor of Rome, whom Ifine calls "a hero who persevered to the end." In the retrieval of memories again and again, Yifen transformed into everything that writer Barnes cherished. What kind of finished product will people, their memory and being remembered, imagination and being imagined be spliced into in the end?
