Overview

This book contains six short fictional stories, all relating to a single river. The stories are not interconnected: rather, the river is interconnected. Each story investigates a different dimension of human experience with wild places.Between each fictional story is a small 'vignette', a personal anecdote of experiences I have had with rivers.Back cover blurb: When something in nature is lost, no two people respond in exactly the same way.A threatened woodland stream haunts the dreams, and waking life, of a person not normally accustomed to spending time in wild places. An ancient tree patiently sifts the wind for linguistic evidence of humanity's ecological awareness. A white trout eludes all human effort to locate, define, and protect it.A dying woman attains, through her art, a connection to nature bordering on omnipresence.In this collection of immersive short stories, the reader is invited to inhabit- and become aligned within- the moral landscape of ecological loss: and to reflect upon the limits of what is endurable, and acceptable, for the wild places important to them.
