About this listen
'Heart-swelling, heart-breaking and all-round unforgettable.' Shari Low
Cordelia Franks never finishes anything and has spent a lifetime hiding in the shadows.
So, when she decides to train to swim the English Channel, she understands why no one believes she can do it. She doesn’t really believe she can either, but she’s determined to try.
As she strides into the Channel with hours stretching ahead of her, Cordelia swims against every milestone in her life so far. Every failed relationship, every friendship let go, every exam failed, every tricky job she quit. A life lived never giving it her all. Until now.
With every stroke, with every mile, Cordelia knows that this is finally her moment. Because if she keeps this promise to herself, if she doesn’t give up, nothing will ever be the same again.
And waiting in France is an unimagined future and someone who does believe in her…
The Swim is an unforgettable, funny and inspiring story of one ordinary woman’s choice to be extraordinary. Perfect for all fans of Libby Page, Clare Pooley and Marian Keyes.
