Description
All the Wide Border: Wales, England and the Places Between
A personal journey through the places, people, and divides of the England-Wales border, exploring the region's landscapes, secrets, and the deepest roots of Britishness. Born in England but settled in Wales, the author's unique perspective delves into the complexities of identity and belonging.
Divided into three legs, following the watersheds of the Dee, Severn, and Wye rivers, the book takes a nuanced look at the England-Wales frontier, challenging notions of Englishness, Welshness, and Britishness. A thought-provoking exploration of the power of borders and our responses to them.
