Returning to London from Hong Kong after a brief, idyllic
marriage ends in tragedy, Alfie Budd finds his world
collapsing. Believing his chance for love has passed, he
takes comfort in fleeting affairs with his students at
Churchill's Language School while watching his parents'
marriage, his grandmother's health, and his career ambitions
rapidly deteriorate. But then Alfie meets two people who
help him to start healing: the old Chinese man he sees
practicing Tai Chi in the park every morning and a single
mother who needs Alfie's help in completing her education.
Soon, our bereft widower is learning much more than Tai Chi
and falling for one student above all others. But can Alfie
give up meaningless sex for a meaningful relationship? And
how much room in our hearts do we really have for love?
