Description

Swimming With Lead Boots by Meg Pinder is an autobiography that recounts the author's journey through various challenges and experiences in her life. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on her early years, struggles with self-esteem, and her career in education. Meg shares anecdotes from her time working in schools, dealing with difficult pupils, and navigating the complexities of her personal life. She reflects on her relationships, including a tumultuous one with a former partner, and the impact of these experiences on her growth and resilience.

The second part of the book delves into more recent events, including the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on her life and work. Meg discusses the importance of support from colleagues and family, and how she found strength in the face of adversity. The narrative is filled with humour, emotion, and insightful observations, making it a compelling read that highlights the author's determination to overcome obstacles and find happiness.
