The Finkler question

The outer archives are busy

by Howard Jacobson

About this book

Julian Treslove, professionally unspectacular BBC worker, and Sam Finkler, popular Jewish philosopher and TV personality, are old school friends. They've never quite lost touch with each other -- or with their former teacher, Libor Sevick. Treslove dines with recent widows Libor and Finkler at Libor's London apartment for a sweetly painful evening of reminiscence. As Treslove walks home he is attacked and robbed, and everything changes. A New York Times Bestseller, Winner of the 2010 Man Booker Prize.
