Description - Providence by Anita Brookner

The second novel from the bestselling author of the Man Booker Prize-winning Hotel du Lac

Kitty Maule wants to be 'totally unreasonable, totally unfair, very demanding, and very beautiful.'

Instead, she is clever, hesitant and too patient for her own good. For years, she has been in love with her colleague Maurice Bishop, a charming English lecturer who seems not to notice her feelings. But when there comes a chance to accompany Maurice to France on a study of French cathedrals, Kitty sees an opporunity to be the woman she has always wanted to be as well as at last make the man she wants fall in love with her. But why is that the closer she gets to Maurice, the more elusive he seems to become?
