Olympic fiction with Chris Cleave

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.
Chris Cleave(Lou Abercrombie)

Chris Cleave's latest novel Gold is about a pair of Olympic cycling 'frenemies'. At the heart of it is a warped love triangle, a friendship slash rivalry -- you're never quite sure which -- and the emotional wreckage of lives that are caught up in the pathological drive to win. Gold is Chris Cleave's third book. His 2005 debut novel Incendiary was made into a film starring Michelle Williams and Ewan McGregor.
