Description
Set in 18th-century Anglesey, Madam Wen is an adventure novel that follows the story of Morys William, a young man with a small sum of money. A group of notorious thieves, led by the enigmatic Madam Wen, set their sights on him. As Morys navigates this treacherous situation, he meets Einir Wyn, a woman who has been searching for her father and is determined to uncover the truth.
But who is Madam Wen? Is she a woman, or a disguise? A leader, or an arachnid? This Welsh adventure novel explores themes of identity, loyalty, and survival. With its unique blend of mystery, suspense, and historical detail, Madam Wen is a gripping tale that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
First published in 2024, this new edition marks the first time the book has been re-released in over 99 years. Originally adapted into an S4C film in 1982, Madam Wen remains one of the most beloved and enduring Welsh-language novels of all time.
