This Buried Life

But often, in the world's most crowded streets,

But often, in the din of strife,
There rises an unspeakable desire
After the knowledge of our buried life;
A thirst to spend our fire and restless force
In tracking out our true, original course;
A longing to inquire
Into the mystery of this heart which beats
So wild, so deep in us - to know
Whence our lives come and where they go.

This Buried Life by Emmanuelle Nathan tells the tale of an American Bella who has escaped an oppressive relationship to start anew in the UK. She has embraced the change and has a successful career working for The British Museum in London. But life is bland and memories of her ex have followed her, holding her back and knocking her confidence. Bella’s character although brave and intelligent, smacks of a life unlived; a lonely existence with a public facade hiding the fire within.

A golden-eyed stranger ignites a passion that even Bella didn’t know she was capable of.  A sexual awakening is on the cards that sees Bella wanton and frenzied under his attentions and demands. Bella’s simple existence is no more and what will happen when this mysterious stranger interferes with the one part of her life she has confidence in – her career? I guess we’ll find out…

I can’t wait by the way ;)
