Turbulent memories confronting an unresolved past.

"Where My Heart Used to Beat" weaves a poignant narrative through the inner turmoil of Robert Hendricks, a character who feels so real, you'll find yourself immersed in his reflections on love, loss, and the scars of war. The dance between past and present in Faulks' storytelling can make the heart ache while igniting a deep appreciation for the complex tapestry of a life lived in the shadows of history. It's the kind of book that grips you subtly and is particularly resonant for anyone fascinated by the lasting effects of time on the human spirit.

Description

On a small island off the south coast of France, Robert Hendricks, an English doctor who has seen the best and the worst the twentieth century had to offer, is forced to confront the events that made up his life. His host, and antagonist, is Alexander Pereira, a man whose time is running out, but who seems to know more about his guest than Hendricks himself does. The search for sanity takes us through the war in Italy in 1944, a passionate love that seems to hold out hope, the great days of idealistic work in the 1960s and finally – unforgettably – back into the trenches of the Western Front. The recurring themes of Sebastian Faulks’s fiction are brought together with a new stylistic brilliance as the novel casts a long, baleful light over the century we have left behind but may never fully understand. Daring, ambitious and in the end profoundly moving, this is Faulks’s most remarkable book yet.
