Tara Amber

Ode To The British Tara Amber

London, the capital of England, is an exciting place for an Eastern European teenage girl, Victoria, looking forward to the prospect of a year working as an Au Pair for the lovely Tant family. However, it is not long before the realities of life behind the "bright lights" have an emotional effect on her in the form of a mysterious, Oriental girl from her language classes called Meral. Ode To The British captures evocatively the gulf between middle England suburbia and the seedy backstreet existence in the city.
