Riverwise, a volume of slow river prose centred around Afon
Teifi, is a book of wanderings and wonderings, witnessings and
enchantments, rememberings and endings. Weaving memoir,
poetry and keen observation into its meandering course, it shifts
across time and space to reflect the beauty of hidden, fluvial
places, and to meditate on the strangeness of being human.
Above all, though, this book stands as a hymn to those fragments
of riparian wilderness which on our maps appear as ever-
shrinking horns of green amid a white, gridded landscape of
human dominance. Riverwise is a clarion call to learn to love and
protect the natural world and its waterways.
