The journey, evocatively illustrated by Sarah’s sister, Rachel Collis, weaves together Celtic myths, historical and personal narratives and environmental concerns, as well as Welsh words and ideas.
In Celtic traditions, sources of water are also sources of wisdom and rivers are ways that this is spread and communicated.
In a time of ecological crisis, the author encourages the reader to be open to and explore ways to listen to Hafren’s wisdom.
Hafren not only speaks to the wisdom of this river, but of all rivers, encouraging readers to understand better their place as part of nature.
