Dreamlike and propulsive, this coming-of-age story swims its way around Europe and the Americas, taking in ice pots in Finland, hot rivers in Iceland, cenotes in Mexico, and desert reservoirs in Arizona.
Founder of the Outdoor Swimming Society Kate Rew has always sought to be a free woman: swimming freely — and free to define herself. As life tightens, she sets a course that takes in views of platonic friendship, hidden waterscapes and the stormy weather of ageing.
Full of stunning waterscapes and the wildlife that live in them, Swim Nomad offers a profound sense of how to live a life of freedom at any age. Rew swims to be in nature, but also to experience life outside the neat roles that society would prescribe us.
Joyful, political, apocalyptical and experiential: this is the story of connections, across generations and countries, and taking as many people as possible with you. An antidote to fear, and limits. Of how the middle years do not have to be a middle ground. And of a woman determined to pursue her passion - and bring as many others as she possibly can with her.
