Where My Heart Used to Beat

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.

From the bestselling author of Birdsong. Moving between France, Italy, New York and London, it spans a hundred years and explores love, war, memory and desire, and the relationship between the body and the mind.
