Description
The Lido is a heartwarming novel about the power of friendship and love to transform lives. When an outdoor pool in Brixton, London, is threatened with closure, two women from different generations find common ground and discover new purpose.
For Rosemary, the lido holds memories of her past and a sense of community that has been lost. Meanwhile, Kate Matthews, a young writer, is struggling to find her place in the world. As Kate writes about the lido, she begins to see the world through Rosemary's eyes, and their lives are forever changed.
This charming and poignant tale explores the heart and spirit of a community across generations, revealing the beauty of love, loss, aging, and friendship.
