What is Secret Life?

The Secret Life of Cumbria is a book written by the people of Cumbria. A collection of stories about escape, love, grief, and favourite T-shirts!

Anyone who lived, worked in or visited Cumbria in 2008 could write their own pages by sending a text message or visiting this web site. The pages of the book are all collected here.

Cumbria is a big place, both in the world and in our imaginations, with as many paths through it as there are people who live in or visit it. You can read Cumbria's Secret Life by finding your own way through this site, moving from place to place.
