Numa tarde de verão em Henley-on-Thames, depois de uma final na Thames Challenge Cup, o mundo de Finn desmorona-se com a elegância desastrada que só Aly consegue provocar. Um Audi na piscina. Um martini a mais. E uma noite longa pela frente, com Archie e Brian a caminho para ajudar a resolver o caos. O que parecia ser um fim de semana de regata como qualquer outro transforma-se rapidamente numa noite de confissões, tensões antigas e desejos que resistem a ser ignorados.Silverbourne: Maré de Henley é um romance gay literário situado no universo do remo de elite britânico, onde o desejo, a lealdade e o arrependimento coexistem com a adrenalina da competição. Finn e Aly são um casal improvável e absolutamente inevitável: um meticuloso e contido, o outro caótico e fascinante, ambos irrevogavelmente presos um ao outro. Entre flashbacks a Oxford, escapadelas a Berlim e noites no Soho londrino, a história revela camada a camada a complexidade de dois homens que se amam de formas que nenhum dos dois sabe ainda nomear completamente.A série Silverbourne explora a identidade gay na Grã-Bretanha contemporânea com uma franqueza rara: sem romantizar as dificuldades nem suavizar os momentos de desejo cru. O remo é o pano de fundo, mas também é uma metáfora, um mundo de disciplina, corpo, esforço colectivo e competição silenciosa onde as emoções raramente têm espaço para respirar. É precisamente nesse espaço que Finn e Aly existem, às margens do que é permitido sentir e dizer.Com uma voz íntima e desassombrada, este romance navega entre Oxfordshire, Fulham, Berlim e o Soho londrino, explorando o que significa ser gay num mundo de lycra justa, amizades intensas e expectativas silenciosas. Escrito da perspectiva queer, com autenticidade e humor literário, Maré de Henley é um volume da série Silverbourne: uma saga britânica sobre remo, amor e a estranha beleza de amar alguém que nunca para de te surpreender.Para leitores de ficção literária LGBT que apreciam personagens com profundidade, prosa sensorial e romance com verdade emocional.
