Bywgraffiad yr Awdur / Author Biography
Brenda Chamberlain was born in Bangor, Wales. She studied art at the Royal Academy in London, but simultaneously developed an interest in poetry. Just before the Second World War, she moved in with artist John Petts, and together they set up the Caseg Press at their home. Chamberlain also produced prose works, including a novel and a memoir of life on Bardsey Island, where she lived from 1947.
Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review
The combination of Bardsey, ancient site of Christian pilgrimage, wild and dangerous landscape, and Brenda Chamberlain, Royal Academy trained artist, results in a classic book, vividly illustrated by the author's line drawings. This edition includes an Afterword by fellow artist Jonah Jones.
