9781907090929: Snow Goose & other utopian fictions

Synopsis

This is the first full-length collection of short stories by travel writer and master of mountain literature Jim Perrin. Mystery, romanticism and tragedy abound in these four fictional tales, beginning with the title story, which reimagines the fated Franklin Expedition to the Arctic in 1845 as an eco-fable for our times.

He deserves to be recognised as the most singular, and the most outstanding, prose writer of present-day Wales. M Wynn Thomas, New Welsh Review
