Description

Swimming with Tigers is a powerful novel about two women who refuse to be defined by their relationships with men. Set against the backdrop of 1930s Paris, it tells the story of Penelope and Suzanne, two exceptional artists struggling to find their place in the surrealist movement. As they navigate the bohemian art circles of the time, they begin to challenge the expectations placed upon them as women. But when their work is showcased at an exhibition, they are shocked to discover that they have been betrayed by those around them. With their friendship growing stronger, they embark on a desperate journey across France and into Spain, determined to save each other from the darkness of war. Based on the lives of real-life women surrealists, Swimming with Tigers is a story of passion, creativity, and courage in the face of adversity.
