In this elegant novel of passion and art, award-winning author Ann Ireland extends the boundaries of the traditional love story. The Instructor probes the nature of power shifts between man and woman, teacher and student. It is a story of needs that become twisted into obsession.
Simone Paris is nineteen when she leaves Huron County bound for Mexico with her art instructor, Otto Guest. Their affair is loaded with desire, not only physical but intellectual. Theirs is a mutual addiction made up of philosophy and shared aesthetic interest, entwined with sexual fascination.
Six years after their relationship crumbled, Otto returns to Simone. His reappearance triggers vivid memories which she expresses in a voice matured by experience and regret.
With rare economy of writing, Ann Ireland evokes a subtle, sophisticated world of lust, betrayal and thirst for artistic fulfilment.
