Summary note
"students in the class did not like their teacher. She was a tyrant, serious, alienating. She taught English, but mostly the language of all that lives and gaves students the skeleton of abstract rules. After a 'student's suicide by jumping from the roof of the building where she lived, the teacher remained as sealed and anonymous as she had been. Thirty years later, the the narrator called her former pupil about the riddle of the life of Elsa Weiss. Looking back, she received advice on life lessons themselves. But what was the lesson? What the teacher taught?" -- cataloger's rough translation and interpretation of cover.
"התלמידים בכיתה לא אהבו את המורה שלהם. היא הייתה עריצה, חמורה, מנוכרת. היא לימדה אנגלית, אבל עיקרה את השפה מכל מה שחי והגישה לתלמידים שלד של חוקים מופשטים. בהתאבדותה בקפיצה מגג הבניין שבו התגוררה, המורה נשארה חתומה ואלמונית כמו בחייה. מקץ שלושים שנה נקראת המספרת, תלמידתה לשעבר, אל חידת חייה של אלזה וייס. במבט לאחור, היא שקיבלה מווייס שיעור גורלי, שיעור ששיעורו כחיים עצמם. אבל מה היה השיעור הזה? מה לימדה המורה?" -- cover.
