About this Event
In this talk, author Amy-Jane Beer will share some of the stories and themes explored in her book, The Flow, which won the 2023 Wainwright Prize for nature writing.
"The Flow is a book about water, and, like water, it meanders, cascades and percolates through many lives, landscapes and stories. From West Country torrents to Levels and Fens, rocky Welsh canyons, the salmon highways of Scotland and the chalk rivers of the Yorkshire Wolds, Amy-Jane follows springs, streams and rivers to explore tributary themes of wildness and wonder, loss and healing, mythology and history, cyclicity and transformation."
