The Favourites wer. angielska - Layne Fargo - książka
Producent: Chatto & Windus
A whirlwind tale of love and ambition unfolds as the tumultuous romance of "Wuthering Heights" gets reimagined within the glittering yet ruthless realm of elite figure skating. Although many believe Heath Rocha was Katarina Shaw's first love, in truth, it was figure skating that initially captured her heart. Despite lacking a notable name, financial backing, or her family's encouragement, Katarina harbored a deep-seated belief in her destiny as an Olympic skater. Her life takes a pivotal turn upon meeting Heath Rocha, a lonely soul navigating the foster care system. Their immediate connection transforms them into a powerful ice duo—a refuge from their turbulent lives. Together, Kat and Heath evolve from childhood sweethearts into celebrated ice dancers, mesmerizing audiences with their fiery chemistry and defiant spirit, all while grappling with their intense emotions. Their partnership rides a wave of success until a startling event at the Olympics abruptly concludes their collaboration. As the decade mark since their last performance approaches, a controversial documentary rekindles public fascination with Shaw and Rocha, promising to unveil the 'real story' through insights from close friends and fierce competitors. Although Kat is reluctant to engage with the project, the idea of others shaping her legacy is unbearable. Thus, she decides to break her silence, sharing her narrative—from the childhood traumas that solidified her bond with Heath to the divergent aspirations that eventually drove them apart. While sensational rumors have clouded their journey, the truth might just surpass any speculation. Blending Kat's personal recount of her dramatic ascent and calamitous decline with tantalizing excerpts from the eye-opening documentary, "The Favourites" captures the unyielding intensity reminiscent of Emily Bronte’s timeless classic. This story is a riveting exploration of the interplay between passion, ambition, and the essence of true victory.
