Description
The Tidal Year is a poignant and moving memoir about grief, self-discovery, and the healing power of wild swimming. Freya Bromley's journey takes her to every tidal pool in Britain, from the rugged coastline of Scotland to the hidden pools of Cornwall, as she seeks to fill the void left by her brother's death.
Through her swims, Freya finds herself drawn closer to memories of her brother, and the challenge becomes a journey of self-discovery and reflection. Along the way, she explores the complex, tidal nature of grief and the space it creates for rewilding and hope.
This beautifully written book is a tribute to the power of wild swimming and the bonds of sisterhood. With its honest and humorous tone, it is a story that will resonate with anyone who has experienced loss and is looking for a way to heal and find solace.
