About the Book

Una inspiradora historia sobre la amistad y sobre cómo la gente corriente puede hacer cosas extraordinarias para defender lo que de verdad ama.

«Una de las novelas que no pueden faltar en tu lista de lecturas para este año.».-The Independent

Rosemary es una viuda de 86 años que ha vivido en el barrio de Brixton, en Londres, toda su vida. Allí ha visto cómo cerraba la biblioteca en la que trabajaba y cómo la frutería se convertía en un bar de moda. Cuando la piscina local a la que acude desde que era una niña, y en la que se enamoró de su marido, se ve amenazada también, Rosemary sabe que este puede ser el principio del fin.

Kate es una joven reportera del periódico local y desde que se mudó a Londres se encuentra perdida en una ciudad que siente demasiado grande... y demasiado hostil. Pero cuando, con la ayuda de un encantador fotógrafo, Kate investiga un poco en la historia de la piscina de Brixton se da cuenta de que esta es la oportunidad que ha estado esperando.

Porque, juntas, Rosemary y Kate están dispuestas a resistir y a demostrar que la piscina no es solo un lugar para nadar. Es el corazón de una comunidad y harán lo que sea para protegerla.

Porque, para cambiar las cosas, algunas veces tienes que nadar contracorriente.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE LIDO is a joyous and uplifting debut - a testament to kindness and friendship and all those values society must hold dear' SARAH WINMAN, author of When God Was a Rabbit and Tin Man Meet Rosemary, 86, and Kate, 26: dreamers, campaigners, outdoor swimmers... Rosemary has lived in Brixton all her life. But now everything she knows is changing - the library where she used to work has closed, the family fruit and veg shop has become a trendy bar, and her beloved husband George is gone.

Kate has just moved and feels alone in a city that is too big for her. She's at the bottom rung of her career as a journalist on a local paper, and is determined to make something of it. So when the local lido is threatened with closure, Kate knows this story could be her chance to shine. And Rosemary knows it is the end of everything for her.

Together they are determined to make a stand, to show that the pool is more than just a place to swim - it is the heart of the community.

Together they will show the importance of friendship, the value of community, and how ordinary people can protect the things they love.
