Pulse

I finished Julian Barnes's collection of short stories less than two weeks ago, and yet I am having a hard time locating anything memorable about them. The prose style is pleasant enough, and the observations on human behavior can penetrate, but other than a historical story about Garibaldi the entries all seem to run together. Whether that's the fault of Barnes or a middle-aged memory is an open question.
