Lleisiau hanner cant o feirdd yn llifo gydag afonydd Cymru. Pob cerdd yn Gymraeg a Saesneg, wedi’i chyfieithu o’r naill iaith i’r llall.
Fifty Welsh poets speak for and with the rivers of Wales. Every poem translated Welsh to English, English to Welsh.
No two rivers are the same. From the least bog-trickle to the two-hundred-mile embrace of Hafren/Severn, each has its own voice, often many voices, each specific to the place it flows through and reflects. This is the insight that makes for such a rich and varied anthology. More than just a showcase for the range and reach of Welsh writing in two equal languages, this is a water-map that catches the whole of Wales, its history and landscapes, its diversity and fine connections, in its glittering net.
