When a significant injury threatens his swimming career, John must decide to give up his goals or keep moving forward, defying everyone’s expectations of what he can accomplish.

Plunge into the water, accompany Antonio Argüelles on his Oceans Seven adventure, and, along the way, find out how to achieve your own dreams and goals. On August 3, 2017, Antonio Argüelles swam 35 kilometers from Northern Ireland to Scotland. When he arrived on the Scottish shore after a swim of nearly 14 hours through hypothermic currents wearing only a speedo, cap, and goggles, he became just the seventh person ever to conquer the Oceans Seven, an aquatic achievement on par with the Seven Summits. His feat made international news, in part because at 58 years old, he became the oldest athlete ever to complete the challenge. Despite all warnings and his own self-doubt, he endured stormy seas, 24-hour swims, venomous jellyfish blooms, and a host of other hazards to accomplish his dream. But no goal seized is an isolated incident, and Antonio's story is no exception. The Forever Swim is not only a tale of success; it is also the tale of how a hyperactive overweight boy would discover swimming, chase an Olympic dream, attend Stanford, and wade into the tangled web of Mexican politics. This is a story of risk, fear, confidence, failure, and loss. It shows how the ability to adapt, focus, and manage the mind enabled Antonio to overcome each setback that sought to take him down in and out of the water. The Forever Swim illuminates key strategies anyone can utilize to pursue their own goals and reminds us that no dream, however bold, is ever out of reach, as long as we are willing to chase it down with relentless discipline and joy.

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A GUARDIAN, INDEPENDENT, IRISH TIMES AND EVENING STANDARD BOOK OF 2021 'This book is a delight, and it's about delight too. How necessary, at our particular moment' Tessa Hadley, Guardian From the New York Times-bestselling, Booker Prize-winning author of Lincoln in the Bardo and Tenth of December comes a literary master class on what makes great stories work and what they can tell us about ourselves - and our world today. For the last twenty years, George Saunders has been teaching a class on the Russian short story to his MFA students at Syracuse University. In A Swim in a Pond in the Rain, he shares a version of that class with us, offering some of what he and his students have discovered together over the years. Paired with iconic short stories by Chekhov, Turgenev, Tolstoy, and Gogol, the seven essays in this book are intended for anyone interested in how fiction works and why it's more relevant than ever in these turbulent times. In his introduction, Saunders writes, “We're going to enter seven fastidiously constructed scale models of the world, made for a specific purpose that our time maybe doesn't fully endorse but that these writers accepted implicitly as the aim of art-namely, to ask the big questions, questions like, How are we supposed to be living down here? What were we put here to accomplish? What should we value? What is truth, anyway, and how might we recognize it?” He approaches the stories technically yet accessibly, and through them explains how narrative functions; why we stay immersed in a story and why we resist it; and the bedrock virtues a writer must foster. The process of writing, Saunders reminds us, is a technical craft, but also a way of training oneself to see the world with new openness and curiosity. A Swim in a Pond in the Rain is a deep exploration not just of how great writing works but of how the mind itself works while reading, and of how the reading and writing of stories make genuine connection possible.

"The genesis of this novel of alternate history is a December 1954 photograph taken during a live television performance of the General Electric Theater. In the photo, young James Dean is brandishing a pistol at fellow actor (and weekly show-host) Ronald Reagan. The juxtaposition is startling. Two cultural icons, one who would be dead within a year, and even though having had only one feature film released in his lifetime, would be immortalized as a symbol of cool rebellion. The other, in a little over a quarter century, would become leader of the free world, the standard bearer of traditional and even fundamentalist values. Although the story is largely from Jimmy's viewpoint, Reagan is not meant to be seen as a villain; nor is Jimmy a hero. In many ways, THE COLD LAST SWIM is classical Greek drama: Reagan's Apollo, god of light, warmth, and temperance; Jimmy's Bacchus, license, alienation, and impulse. One can clearly picture each in fifties America, Reagan firmly established among the open freeways and unblemished skies of sunny Los Angeles; Jimmy, emerging from the black and white shadows of a rainy New York street. Alternate history demands that at least one significant event be changed yet the narrative that is affected still could have happened in the wake of that invented occurrence. In THE COLD LAST SWIM, quite a number of events are nuanced, but all could have plausibly unfolded in its own parallel universe. While a period piece, The Cold Last Swim is wholly contemporary, as in it, the seeds are being sown for the cultural gulf that divides America today. The elements are inherently cinematic, and with the twelve-year frame of the narrative and a tightly enmeshed ensemble, it could ultimately serve as a container for a long form television series. The 1954 to 1966 span is quite purposeful. When we look back at the 1950s there is an elegance which, by 1966, was still apparent. What is termed "the sixties" is most often the street violence, rock festivals and war-torn Vietnam images that flooded the final few years of that decade. By 1966, demonstrations remained largely peaceful, the Woodstock nation was not in evidence and the Vietnam War had yet to be substantially escalated. In other words, the fuse had been lit but the explosion was still to take place"--
