{"product_id":"the-lido","title":"The Lido","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe international bestselling debut about friendship and love--featuring the life-changing relationship between an anxious young reporter and an eighty-six-year-old lifelong swimmer that \"follows in the footsteps of the enormously popular A Man Called Ove...charming and heartwarming\" (Kirkus Reviews).We're never too old to make new friends--or make a difference. Rosemary Peterson has lived in Brixton, London, all her life, but everything is changing. The library where she used to work has closed. The family grocery store has become a trendy bar. And now the lido, an outdoor pool where she's swum daily since its opening, is threatened with closure by a local housing developer. It was at the lido that Rosemary escaped the devastation of World War II; here she fell in love with her husband, George; here she found community during her marriage and since George's death. Twentysomething Kate Matthews has moved to Brixton and feels desperately alone. A once-promising writer, she now covers forgettable stories for her local paper. That is, until she's assigned to write about the lido's closing. Soon Kate's portrait of the pool focuses on a singular woman: Rosemary. And as Rosemary slowly opens up to Kate, both women are nourished and transformed in ways they never thought possible. \"Charming [and] an unusually poignant tale of married love\" (The Washington Post), Mornings with Rosemary is a feel-good novel that captures the heart and spirit of a community across generations--an irresistible tale of love, loss, aging, and friendship. *Originally published as The Lido\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 128 x 196 x 28\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Libby Page\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9781409175223\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 394\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67725877379225,"sku":"17RE-2-9781409175223","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/The_Lido_Libby_Page.webp?v=1792155396","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.ae\/products\/the-lido","provider":"Dubai - Buy Used\/Second-Hand Books - BookHero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
