Samuel first sees Tess walking across The Common, he feels it instantly—an echo, a resonance, he has lived on the edge of the visible world ever since his near-death experience, he doesn’t just see Tess—he recognizes her. In a village where glamour conceals hollowness and the brightest scenes cast the darkest shadows, their lives entwine. To Jules a charming Gallery owner, Tess is a reminder of the light that once lived in him, he is drawn to her by the desperate hope of redemption. Tess, honest-eyed and quietly adrift, is the thread that binds them. As the glittering surface of the world around them begins to crack, Samuel is pulled into the shadowy underworld and Jules must confront the illusions that have kept him numb. In a world where glamour masks corruption and love is a mirror to the soul, My Life Story is a haunting story about our fractured pasts and the fragile light from the cosmos that guides us home.
