About this book

Español

A por el oro

Kate y Zoe son amigas íntimas y, a la vez, máximas rivales del ciclismo en pista. Cuando se acercan los Juegos Olímpicos, sus vidas toman caminos opuestos: Kate debe entregarse al cuidado de su pequeña hija Sophie, mientras que Zoe se deja llevar por la ambición de llegar a lo más alto de la competición. En esta exitosa novela, Chris Cleave retrata la presión del deporte de élite, los límites de la amistad y el valor de la vida. Una historia intensa y conmovedora sobre ganar y sobre vivir.

English

Gold

Kate and Zoe are the closest of friends and the fiercest of rivals on the track cycling circuit. As the London Olympics approach, their lives pull in opposite directions: Kate must devote herself to caring for her young daughter, Sophie, while Zoe is consumed by ambition and the drive to reach the very top of competition. Chris Cleave's bestselling novel explores the pressure of elite sport, the limits of friendship, and what truly matters when everything is on the line. A moving, intensely human story about winning and living.
