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 shes 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 Georges 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 shes assigned to write about the lidos closing. Soon Kates 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 generationsan irresistible tale of love, loss, aging, and friendship. *Originally published as The Lido
