In fiction, Luke recommends [[Where my Heart Used to Beat by Sebastian Faulks]].In the early 1980’s, on a small island off the South of France, a Doctor named Robert Hendricks confronts his life – memories of wars, work, loves, and losses. As his history is explored and questioned by his host, Hendricks recalls days in Scottish universities, Italian trenches, mental asylums and windswept beaches. Links to the past are uncovered, and the raw wounds they expose take Hendricks on a search for sanity and raises the question – is life comprised of events themselves, or the way in which an individual chooses to remember them? This is a journey through age, war, love, and the human mind. It's staggeringly beautiful, haunting, moving, and yet more proof of Faulks immense talent.
