Description
You burn your bridges
going into a foreign forest
Dorothy Porter
Three people form an unlikely but spirited connection.
Adrian is a renowned scholar, an expert on death in the modern age whose life has stalled.
Kezi, a young and passionate artist, has been rejected by her family. She hurtles through her days with defiance and regret.
Laura is a successful town planner submerged in a seemingly perfect marriage.
In The Buried Life Andrea Goldsmith brilliantly dissects the conflicts and complexities of contemporary life in a story of love and friendship, faith and fundamentalism, subtly underscored by the power of poetry and music.
You can stifle the past but it will breathe again.
A novel about death and life, Mahler, poetry and cheese. Goldsmith writes so well
about friendship, her characters come to feel like your own friends.
Andrew Ford
A rumination on death and the complexity of love from one of our nation’s most brilliant minds.
