The Finkler QuestionThe Finkler Question

"Julian Treslove and Sam Finkler are old school friends. Despite a prickly relationship and very different lives, they've never quite lost touch with each other, or with their former teacher, Libor Sevcik, a Czech always more concerned with the wider world than exam results. Now, both Libor and Sam are recently widowed, and with Treslove, his chequered and unsuccessful record with women rendering him an honorary third widower, they dine at Libor's grand, central London apartment." -- From the publisher
