Learning to Swim

by Clare Chambers

Read a sample Read a sample

From the highly-acclaimed author of SMALL PLEASURES - winner of the 2022 British Book Awards Page-Turner
Abigail Jex never expected to see any of the Radley household again.
The Radley's were extraordinary, captivating creatures transplanted from a bohemian corner of North London to outer suburbia, and the young Abigail found herself drawn into their magic circle: the eccentric Frances, her new best friend; Frances' mother, the liberated, headstrong Lexi; and of course the brilliant, beautiful Rad.
Abigail thought she had banished the ghost of her life with them and the catastrophe that ended it, but thirteen years later a chance encounter forces her to acknowledge that the spell is far from broken.
Praise for Clare Chambers:

'This delicious novel is a joy from beginning to end - just perfect!!' Lisa Jewell
'Charming - A funny and moving story with a great deal of style' Sunday Telegraph
'A spirited account of growing up and falling in love' Good Housekeeping
'An intelligent and escapist read - well written, and very funny' Daily Express
