Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review

A young Irish skydiver ponders the highs and lows of a lost relationship as he climbs through the clouds; a baronial castle once owned by the renowned opera-singer Adelina Patti becomes a hospital for tuberculosis sufferers; a third generation miner takes up running after the closure of a pit... The Terry Hetherington Award aims to encourage and promote young and emerging writers. Profits from the sale of the anthology help to fund the following year’s award.
